Configuring Port Mirroring
With port mirroring, you can copy the data traffic of a switch port to a definable, other
switch port, called the sniffer port. This enables you to read the network traffic for analy-
sis purposes. The transmitting and receiving packets (TX/RX) of certain ports can be mir-
rored separately to a sniffer port, where the network traffic can be read.
Configuration with the web interface
To use a port as sniffer port, select the according port in the menu "Switch" on
the page "Port mirroring" in the drop-down menu "Sniffer port".
Select in the drop-down menu "TX mirroring to sniffer port" the port,
whose
TX line data you want to copy to the sniffer port
.
Select in the drop-down menu "RX mirroring to sniffer port" the port,
whose
RX line data you want to copy to the sniffer port
.
Save your settings
by clicking "OK".
