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!
