Configuring the Sample Remote Port Mirroring
Remote port mirroring requires a source session (monitored ports on different source switches), a reserved tagged VLAN for transporting
mirrored traffic (configured on source, intermediate, and destination switches), and a destination session (destination ports connected to
analyzers on destination switches).
Table 63. Configuration Steps for RPM
Step Command Purpose
1 configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.

3 source Interface | Range
Specify the port or list of ports that needs to be monitored
4
direction Specify rx, tx or both in case to monitor ingress/egress or both
ingress and egress packets on the specified port..
5
rpm source-ip <id>
dest-ip
<id> Specify the source ip address and the destination ip where the packet
needs to be sent.
6
<no>
flow-based enable
Specify flow-based enable for mirroring on a flow by flow basis and
also for vlan as source.
7
no enable
(Optional) No disable command is mandatory in order for a rpm
session to be active.
