Table 35-1 lists the maximum number of monitoring sessions per system. For the C-Series and S-Series, the total number of sessions is derived by consuming a unique destination port in each session, in each port-pipe. Table 35-1. Maximum Number of Monitoring Sessions per System System C150 C300 S50V, S50N S25P S55 S60 S4810 and S4820T Maximum Sessions ∞ (Note) ∞ (Note) ∞ (Note) ∞ (Note) ∞ (Note) ∞ (Note) ∞ (Note) System E1200/E1200i (TeraScale) E1200i (ExaScale) E600/E600i (TeraScale) E600i (ExaScale) E300 Maximum Sessions 28 ∞ 14 ∞ 6 Note: On the C-Series and S-Series, there is no limit to the number of monitoring sessions per system, provided that there are only 4 destination ports per port-pipe. If each monitoring session has a unique destination port, then the maximum number of session is 4 per port-pipe. Port Monitoring on E-Series Both the E-Series TeraScale and E-Series ExaScale support the following. • FTOS supports one destination (MG) port per monitoring session. The same destination port (MG) can be used in another monitoring session. • One destination (MG) port can monitor up to 28 source (MD) ports. • A port cannot be defined as both a source (MD) and a destination (MG) port (Message 1). Message 1 Cannot define source (MD) and destination (MG) on same port % Error: MD port is already being monitored. E-Series TeraScale The E-Series TeraScale system supports 1 monitoring session per port-pipe. E-Series TeraScale supports a maximum of 28 port pipes. 728 | Port Monitoring
