3 thoughts on “Which option shows how to configure an ERSPAN Type III source session in Cisco NX-OS 6.2?”
I think I found what the difference is supposed to be in B and C. One of them should read
switch (config-erspan-src)# destination interface ethernet 14/30 (as both B and C already show)
and the other one should read
switch (config-erspan-src)# source interface ethernet 14/30 (which I think is what we should be looking for on the exam if either B or C was changed from destination to source.
as shown in section 16 in Configuring Rule-Based ERSPAN in the same above link.
The reason I say look there is because if you look at the steps in Configuring an ERSPAN Source Session on that same link the following line is not there as it is in the steps for Configuring Rule-Based ERSPAN.
So in my final opinion if all the answers go with having granularity included I will go for the option that has “source interface” and does not include “capture monitor”.
If there is an option that has “source interface”, does not include “capture monitor” or “granularity” then I am going for that one because it would definitely satisfy the steps shown in Configuring an ERSPAN Source Session.

According to section 11 in Configuring an ERSPAN Destination Session
( https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus7000/sw/system-management/guide/b_Cisco_Nexus_7000_Series_NX-OS_System_Management_Configuration_Guide-RI/configuring_erspan.html#task_7D33A6B2D64D46599A08C303D0DED9FA )
what you see in option B or C right now would be used.
But I am only guessing that since they asked for Source Session Configuration we would go with
switch (config-erspan-src)# source interface ethernet 14/30
as shown in section 16 in Configuring Rule-Based ERSPAN in the same above link.
The reason I say look there is because if you look at the steps in Configuring an ERSPAN Source Session on that same link the following line is not there as it is in the steps for Configuring Rule-Based ERSPAN.
switch (config)# monitor erspan granularity 100_ns.

Just my confusing thoughts on it.
Are B and C identical?
Thats the same reason I just came to this site to verify. I saw them as identical after looking line by line at both as well.
