A source port (MD) can only be monitored by one destination port (MG). The following error is
displayed if you try to assign a monitored port to more than one monitoring port.

The C-Series and S-Series may only have four destination ports per port-pipe. There is no limitation on
the total number of monitoring sessions.
Table 38-1
the total number of sessions is derived by consuming a unique destination port in each session, in each
port-pipe.

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 Cannot define source (MD) and destination (MG) on same port
