Correct answer & explanation
✓
The ERSPAN destination session receives traffic from source IP 10.0.0.2 and sends it to Gi0/1.
This is an ERSPAN destination session. It receives ERSPAN-encapsulated traffic from source IP 10.0.0.2 with ERSPAN ID 100, decapsulates it, and sends the original mirrored traffic to destination port Gi0/1. The session is administratively enabled.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
The ERSPAN destination session receives traffic from source IP 10.0.0.2 and sends it to Gi0/1.
Why this is correct
The output shows source IP 10.0.0.2, destination port Gi0/1, and ERSPAN ID 100, confirming this.
- ✗
The ERSPAN destination session sends traffic to source IP 10.0.0.2.
Why it's wrong here
The source IP is where traffic comes from, not where it is sent.
- ✗
The session is an RSPAN destination session because it uses a destination port.
Why it's wrong here
The type is 'ERSPAN Destination Session', not RSPAN.
- ✗
The session is misconfigured because the destination port has ingress disabled.
Why it's wrong here
Ingress disabled is normal for SPAN destination ports.
