    Hi, a please, a TIM and CEM support Encapsulated Remote Switched Port Analyzer (ERSPAN) ?

    The Cisco ERSPAN feature allows you to monitor traffic on one or more ports or VLANs and send the monitored traffic to one or more destination ports.

     

    Thank you !

    This was past guidance:

    TIM has no capability to poll any specific IP address for network data feed, it has to get data through a network interface. In theory you could assign an IP address to the ethernet interface that TIM attaches to get data and send ERSPAN feed directly there however there are known issues with network data quality using ERSPAN and TIM. The result  that could cause inaccurate reporting by TIM, Missing data\transactions or TIM overload due to out of order packets
