Port Mirroring
Port mirroring is a method to monitor traffic in switched networks. This is
accomplished by mirroring the traffic going in and out of the monitored ports
to a specifically designated port (the mirror port).
1. Port Mirroring Mode: Sets the mirror mode. Select disable to disable
port mirroring. Select TX to monitor data being transmitted by a port.
Select both to monitor port data being transmitted and received by a
port. The default value is “Disable”.
2. Analysis Port: This is the port used to see all monitored port traffic
(This port can be connected to a LAN analyzer or Netxray).
3. Monitor Port: Check the box to monitor the port. Up to 4 ports can be
designated as monitor ports.
[NOTE]
If the configuration is not saved, it will be lost when the port is
powered off.
