Configuration > Port Mirroring
Port Mirroring is a method of monitoring network traffic that forwards
a copy of each incoming and/or outgoing packet from one port of the
Switch to another port where the packet can be studied. This enables
network managers to better monitor network performances.

Selection options for the Source Ports are as follows:

port and forwards it to the Target Port.
RX (receive) mode:
Duplicates the data that send to the source and
forwards it to the Target Port.
Both (transmit and receive) mode:
Duplicate both the data
transmitted from and data send to the source port, and forwards all the
data to the assigned Target Port.
