ES3528MV2 is Edgecore newly launched L2 Fast Ethernet Standalone Switch. It supports RSPAN and speeds up traffic-collecting. In order to monitor traffic on testing switches by remote switch, the configuration of VLAN mode as multiple VLAN is essential. Access VLAN membership mode allows single VLAN and it means only one switch could be monitored. Therefore, the configuration of VLAN membership mode should be switched to 802.1Q trunk or hybrid.
When configuring RSPAN source port, an error message 'Failed to configure the RSPAN source at Ethe 1/x' comes out. Why?
Console(config)#rspan session 1 source interface ethernet 1/1 Failed to configure the RSPAN source at Eth 1/1.

Only 802.1Q trunk or hybrid (i.e., general use) ports can be configured
as an RSPAN uplink or destination port - access ports are not allowed
