Configuring a remote destination group on the destination
device
Restrictions and guidelines for remote destination group configuration
You can configure a remote destination group on an IRF fabric with member devices connected
through multiple IRF physical interfaces. In this case, the monitor port of the remote destination
group and the port that receives the mirrored traffic must reside on the same member device. For
more information about IRF, see
Virtual Technologies Configuration Guide

Configuring the monitor port for a remote destination group
To configure the monitor port for a mirroring group, use one of the following methods:
•
Configure the monitor port for the mirroring group in system view.
•
Assign a port to the mirroring group as the monitor port in interface view.
When you configure the monitor port for a remote destination group, follow these restrictions and
guidelines:
•
Do not enable the spanning tree feature on the monitor port.
•
For port mirroring to operate correctly, do not configure an EVB-enabled port as the monitor port.
For more information about EVB, see
EVB Configuration Guide
.
•
For a Layer 2 aggregate interface configured as the monitor port of a mirroring group, do not
configure its member ports as source ports of the mirroring group.
•
Use a monitor port only for port mirroring, so the data monitoring device receives only the
mirrored traffic.
•
A mirroring group must contain only one monitor port.
•
A monitor port can belong to only one mirroring group.
