Thanks to all who answered - basically the suggestions revolved around
the same type of solution I assumed originally to be needed
(span/mirror/monitor ports, one at a time, to a probe machine -
whether done via a script on the switch, itself, or controlled
remotely). The above solution is different (saving tons of work), and
it is in fact something I have tried in the past, but never been able
to get to work properly [the entire traffic]. I am thankful for the
reminder, as I could give it another shot.

I've found tcpdump -e to be useful, too - didn't think of that, good suggestion. Doing it the other way at the console isn't a lot of work (*not* one port at a time - one blade at a time via port-ranges for the SPAN source, then narrowing down the port ranges), it's about 5 minutes or so, max, FYI.

Here's some documentation on SPAN/RSPN for the 4500 series:

Good luck!
