2-20 Mirroring
For debugging network problems or monitoring network traffic, the switch system can be configured to
mirror frames from multiple ports to a mirror port. In this context, mirroring a frame is the same as copying
the frame. Both incoming (source) and outgoing (destination) frames can be mirrored to the mirror port.
To configure Mirroring in the web UI:
1. Click Configuration, Mirroring.
2. Scroll to select Port to mirror on which port.
3. Scroll to disabled, enable, TX Only and RX only to set the Port mirror mode.
4. Click the Apply button to save the setting.
5. To cancel the settings click the Reset button to revert to previously saved values.
