Configuring a SPAN Session for a Port Channel
To use the NAM with a switch, you must define a SPAN session between the switch and the NAM. You
can specify the switch by its interface IP address and you can specify the NAM by the port channel that
it uses.
If you need to define the NAM by its data port, see the
section on page
