We tried to do port mirroring (spanning) but I know it is only supported with distributed switches.
A workaround would be using promiscuous mode in a standard switch. I came across this article:
vSwitch Port Mirroring « Layer3
I'm not sure if this article is correct. My understanding is that only ports within the same port groups receive the broadcast.
Can a vm in one port group span other vms in other port groups as the article indicated??
Thanks.
