•
Configure the reflector port for the remote source group in system view.
•
Assign a port to the remote source group as the reflector port in interface view.
When you configure the reflector port for a remote source group, follow these restrictions and
guidelines:
•
The port to be configured as a reflector port must be a port not in use. Do not connect a network
cable to a reflector port.
•
When a port is configured as a reflector port, all existing configurations of the port are cleared.
You cannot configure other features on the reflector port.
•
If an IRF port is bound to only one physical interface, do not configure the physical interface as
a reflector port. Otherwise, the IRF might split.
•
A mirroring group contains only one reflector port.
•
You can configure a port as a reflector port only when the port is operating with the default
duplex mode, speed, and MDI settings. You cannot change these settings for a reflector port.
•
In an IRF system, IRF physical interfaces cannot be configured as reflector ports for Layer 2
remote port mirroring. For more information about IRF and IRF physical interfaces, see

Configuring the egress port for a remote source group
To configure the egress port for a remote source group, use one of the following methods:
•
Configure the egress port for the remote source group in system view.
•
Assign a port to the remote source group as the egress port in interface view.
When you configure the egress port for a remote source group, follow these restrictions and
guidelines:
•
Disable the following features on the egress port:
Spanning tree.
802.1X.
IGMP snooping.
Static ARP.
MAC address learning.
•
A mirroring group contains only one egress port.
