Explanation

The server is connected to interface Eth1/3 on the FEX101, which maps to Eth101/1/3 on the parent Nexus 9000 switch (N9K1). To monitor traffic sent to the server, you must capture transmit (tx) traffic on that interface. In Cisco Nexus architecture: Interfaces on a FEX (Fabric Extender) appear on the parent switch as eth101/1/x. To monitor traffic from the switch to the server (tx direction), the correct SPAN source is source interface eth101/1/3 tx This meets the goal of copying traffic destined for the server to the network analyzer connected to
