Configure Flow-Based Mirroring in a Multi-Tenant Architecture

You can configure flow-based mirroring in a multi-tenant architecture.

About this task

Follow this procedure to configure flow-based mirroring.

Procedure

  1. Run the following commands to configure access control list applications on Ethernet or port channel and VLAN or virtual Ethernet:
    efa tenant epg create --name <epg-name> --tenant <tenant-name>
       --switchport --switchport-mode trunk –ctag-range <ctag-range>
       --port <mirror-source-port-list> --po <mirror-source-po-list>
    
       --pp-mac-acl-in <acl-name> --pp-mac-acl-out <acl-name>
       --pp-acl-in <acl-name> --pp-ip-acl-out <acl-name>
    
       --np-mac-acl-in <ctag:acl-name> --np-mac-acl-out <ctag:acl-name>
       --np-ip-acl-in <ctag:acl-name> --np-ip-acl-out <ctag:acl-name>
    
  2. Run the following commands to configure a mirror session:
    efa tenant service mirror session create –name? <session-name> --tenant <tenant-name>
       --source {<device-ip>,<eth | po | vlan>,<if-name>}
       --type {<source-device-ip>,<eth | po | vlan>,<source-if-name>:<port-based | flow-based>}
                    
       --destination {<source-device-ip>,<eth | po | vlan>,<source-if-name> : 
    		   <destination-device-ip>,<eth | po | vlan>,<destination-if-name}
       --destination-type {<source-device-ip>,< eth | po | vlan>,<source-if-name>:<span>}
    
       --direction {<source-device-ip>,< eth | po | vlan>,<source-if-name> : <tx | rx | both>}
