Hi Peter, Definitely did a no shutdown on the session and it was showing as up. When the interface is in a monitoring state, I assume the interface counters still increment as per normal? Was getting 0pps on the destination interface, but the source interface was doing ~550pps.
Will also try Patrick's suggestion of setting the IP on the destination switch to its own loopback rather than the sources loopback.

The start in admin disabled state. We have no problems running ERSPAN. You need supervisor HW version 3.2 (IIRC) by the way. We have some 3 year old cards that are HW version 2.1, and they won't do it. A "show module" can tell you the version. Too low version and the CLI tells you "hardware disabled" when you try to "no shut" the session.
