5.6.4 Setting port mirroring
This dialog allows you to configure and activate the port mirroring function of
the switch. Port mirroring is when the data traffic of a source port is copied to
a specified port. The data traffic at the source port is not influenced by port
mirroring. A management tool connected at the specified port, e.g., an
RMON probe, can thus monitor the data traffic of the source port.
Note: In active port mirroring, the specified port is used solely for observation
purposes.
Note: The port mirroring function is always deactivated after a restart.
