A network engineer runs the following command to troubleshoot a SPAN issue:

R1# show monitor session all

Session 1 --------- Type : Local Session Source Ports : Both : Gi0/0 Destination Ports : Gi0/1

Encapsulation      : Native

Ingress : Disabled

Session 2 --------- Type : Remote Source Session Source Ports : Both : Gi0/2 Destination RSPAN VLAN : 100

What does this output indicate?

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

Both sessions are correctly configured and can operate simultaneously.

The output shows two sessions: Session 1 is a local SPAN session, and Session 2 is an RSPAN source session. This is a valid configuration for multiple monitoring sessions.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Both sessions are correctly configured and can operate simultaneously.

    Why this is correct

    Multiple SPAN sessions can coexist on the same device.

  • Session 1 is misconfigured because it cannot coexist with an RSPAN session.

    Why it's wrong here

    Local SPAN and RSPAN sessions can coexist.

  • Session 2 is misconfigured because the RSPAN VLAN must be used only for RSPAN.

    Why it's wrong here

    The RSPAN VLAN is correctly used for RSPAN.

  • Both sessions are misconfigured because they use the same source port.

    Why it's wrong here

    The sessions use different source ports (Gi0/0 and Gi0/2).

Visual reference

Switch VLAN 10 Sales (192.168.10.0/24) PC-A PC-B VLAN 20 HR (192.168.20.0/24) PC-C PC-D Router VLANs isolate traffic — inter-VLAN routing requires a Layer 3 device
