class cobra.model.span.Source

class cobra.model.span.Source

The SPAN or ERSPAN source, which is where traffic is sampled. A source can be an endpoint group (EPG); one or more ports; or port traffic filtered by an EPG (Access SPAN), a layer 2 bridge domain, or a layer 3 context (Fabric SPAN). When you create a traffic monitoring session, you must select a source and a destination. The type of session (Tenant, Access, or Fabric) determines the allowed types of sources and destinations. The destination can be either a port or an EPG. If the destination is a port, it should not be one that has been configured for other purposes.
