Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies (DCCOR) — Question 238

A network engineer must configure a Fibre Channel port monitoring for the local port. The source port should be monitored in the ingress direction. Which configuration should be implemented to achieve this objective?

Answer options

• A. interface fc1/15 switchport mode SD switchport speed 2000 no shutdown span session 1 destination interface fc1/15 source interface fc1/16 rx
• B. interface fc1/15 switchport mode switchport switchport speed 2000 no shutdown span session 1 destination interface fc1/15 source interface fc1/16 tx
• C. interface fc1/15 switchport mode fex-fabric switchport speed 2000 no shutdown span session 1 destination interface fc1/15 source interface fc1/16 rx
• D. interface fc1/15 switchport mode SD switchport speed 2000 no shutdown span session 1 destination interface fc1/15 source interface fc1/16 tx

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because it specifies monitoring the ingress direction (rx) for the source interface, which is necessary for tracking incoming traffic. Options B and D incorrectly use the tx direction, which monitors outgoing traffic instead. Option C uses an incorrect switchport mode (fex-fabric) that is not applicable for this configuration.
