Using a Mirror Port for Analysis
You can mirror traffic from any source port to a target port for
real-time analysis. You can then attach a logic analyzer or RMON
probe to the target port and study the traffic crossing the source
port in a completely unobtrusive manner. When mirroring port
traffic, note that the target port must be included in the same VLAN
as the source port. (See “Configuring Virtual LANs” on page 2-47.)
You can use the Mirror Port Configuration screen to designate a
single port pair for mirroring as shown below.
Designated
Port (ID)
The priority and number of the port on the designated
bridging device through which this switch must
communicate with the root of the Spanning Tree.
