Port Mirroring
The Port mirroring is a method for monitoring traffic in switched networks. Traffic through
ports can be monitored by one specific port. That means traffic going in or out monitored
(source) ports will be duplicated into the mirrored (destination) port.
Destination Port:
There is only one port that can be selected to be the destination
(mirror) port for monitoring both RX and TX traffic which come from source port. Or,
use one of two ports for monitoring RX traffic only and the other one for TX traffic
only. User can connect mirror port to LAN analyzer or Netxray
Source Port:
The ports that user wants to monitor. All monitored port traffic will be
copied to mirror (destination) port. User can select multiple source ports by checking
the
RX
or
TX
check boxes to be monitored.
And then, click
Apply
button.
