Port Mirroring
Purpose Provides a facility to debug or monitor traffic on a specific port, by
duplicating the traffic and sending it to a specified port. Only one pair
of ports can be mirrored per switch. Within Port Mirroring, you can:
• Add a new entry to the list
• Delete an entry
• Edit existing entries
Important When a switch has Port Mirroring enabled, the switch cannot collect
RMON data from the RMON groups 4 to 8.
Adding Port Mirroring To add a mirrored port to a switch:
Note If Port Mirroring is enabled, the source port will be in store-
and-forward mode. Therefore, Runts, CRCs, etc. will not be
forwarded or mirrored.
