I think with certain versions of CatOS you can monitor multiple VLANs. That
link should help.

It's not secure "Because they told me it was secure".
The people at the other end of the link know less
about security than you do. And that's scary.

Subject: SPAN Port Question

I'm trying to add a second sensor to a separate VLAN on a CISCO 5500 switch.
The network boyz tell me there can be only one SPAN port per switch. Can
anyone confirm that for me?

Pse and Tks
