This object specifies the ifIndex of a FC tunnel
that represents a logical Fibre Channel data path
between a source switch and destination switch.
RSPAN uses a special FC tunnel that originates
at the ST port in the source switch and terminates
at the SD port in the destination switch. The FC
tunnel must be first bound to an ST port in the source
switch and then mapped to an SD port in the destination
switch for RSPAN feature configuration, which enables
monitoring traffic from a remote switch.
A value of zero indicates that no FC tunnel is mapped to
a ST port.
GLOSSARY:
SPAN: Switch Port Analyzer (SPAN) is a feature that
enables user to analyze network traffic in a
switched network using network analyzer attached
to a switch port.
RSPAN: Remote SPAN that enables monitoring of traffic
from remote switches.
FC tunnel: An FC tunnel is a logical data path
between a source switch and destination switch.
SPAN tunnel (ST) port: The ST port is used to forward
traffic to FC tunnel.
SPAN destination (SD) port: The SD port is used to
forward traffic to an Analyzer for monitoring
purposes.
