Setting Up Port Mirroring on a Switch in Fabric Mode 2
Fabric mode 2 port mirroring provides the ability for 80-series modules to
monitor traffic that a port transmits and receives. Four channels are
provided for monitoring traffic, so you can monitor four different ports or
port ranges simultaneously. You can set up Fabric mode 2 port mirrors by
using either the Web Agent or the CLI. The switch must be in Fabric mode
2 to perform Fabric mode 2 port mirroring.
Restrictions
* Note: (RN000075) If you attempt to set up port mirroring on a port
that is administratively disabled, and you configure the
disabled port as a source or mirror port, note the following:
Traffic sent to a disabled source port will be lost. A disabled
port set up as a mirror port will not be able to send any traffic
to a monitoring device.
We recommend that you check any ports to be used in port
mirroring to ensure that the ports are active.
* Note: When using Fabric mode 2 port mirroring, you cannot mirror
transmit traffic of multiple source ports to one mirror port.
* Note: When you use Fabric mode 2 port mirroring, both the source
port and mirror port must either:
—
Be on the same VLAN and have the same VLAN binding
or
—
Have VLAN binding set to bind to all
Max Packets per
Second Displays the number of packets per second that are served by the mirror port.
* Sampling only applies to inbound traffic.
