SG-1100 span port only sending broadcast and multicast
-
It's almost certainly being filtered by the switch. Unfortunately we don't yet have a way to enable a span port on the switch which is what would be required here.
Your only option there would be to use a USB NIC. Those are generally not recommended though. Performance can vary wildly.Steve

Oh no, really? That's unfortunate as I was hoping buying the SG-1100 fit perfect in what I needed, this was the last piece. I didn't want to have to add an additional switch and another hop, keep it powered on UPS, just for a span/mirror port.

It may be possible in some CLI script way. Let me see what I can find....

I owe you some beers sir!

Thanks again for looking into this, just checking if anything turned up?

Nothing yet I'm afraid. I did look into it but the available tools may not be sufficient.
I have asked upstream.

SteveHi, any luck with the span port? I am looking at the same setup as well.
Thanks

Not directly in the switch. I believe the switch hardware can do it but poking the correct registers in the switch to make it do it proved difficult.
I was hoping to be able to use etherswitchcfg directly since it has direct register capability but it seems only a limited subset are accessible.Steve

@stephenw10 Thanks Steve.
