View SMLT path for specific mac

[evilmercer]

I am trying to find a way to view what mac addresses are traveling down each path of a SMLT to see if devices having connectivity issues are all on the same link. I am trying to find this on an 8606 running 4.1.5.4. Every output I have been able to find just identifies the mac to the SMLT and not the individual pathway.
Is there a way to view the mac address traversing each link?

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Hello evilmercer.

I guess you can configure ipfix and use 'show ip ipfix' commands to see the individual pathway.
May be ipfix will help you.
For example - the sho ip ipfix commands output from slot 1 of the ERS8606 (7.2.12.1) in lab environment:
R1:6# sho ip ipfix flows 1

This is last release, but in my opinion, it will works the same in your release version.

You can also use additional parameters in sho ip ipfix command such as src/dst ip, src/dst port, port, vlan and so on.

There's a feature called 'Ping-Snoop' which is designed to reveal which path a specific IP data stream is taking.
