<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The other day I encountered what appears to be a bug, but I could not locate anything in the bug navigator.</FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Trying to SPAN the backplane port of a CMM module in a Cat 6500 with Sup720, for the purposes of IPCCx recording/monitoring (in 3.x). The SPAN configuration is very straight forward (I believe) but I found that when I SPAN both directions I receive only the transmit packets, resulting in only recording one side of the conversation. I confirmed this by changing the SPAN source to receive only and NO packets were mirrored whatsoever. From what I can tell, it seems I can't SPAN packets coming from the CMM.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Are there any SPAN/CMM caveats I should be aware of, or does this really sound like a defect? I didn't see anything in release notes or guides.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Thanks,</FONT>
