To implement traffic monitoring for a server vNIC with fabric failover enabled, ensuring that traffic is sent to an analyzer even during a fabric interconnect failure, the correct configuration is to create two traffic monitoring sessions with different names, one per fabric, and connect an analyzer on each FI as the destination for the monitoring session local to the FI. This setup allows continuous monitoring because if one fabric interconnect fails, the other can still send traffic to its connected analyzer2.
