Re: SPAN Port

Port replication occurs between ports you explicity configure the swtich to do so.  Depending on the type of switches 
you have in your network (I know Cisco has the capability via RSPAN), then yes it is quite possible to replicate ports 
between remote switches as well.

I hope that helps :)
