Control Description
Mirrored Port Adds the port to be mirrored.
Port Mirror Direction Specifies the direction of the traffic: in or out or both. It is necessary to specify the
direction because:
• If the source port of the frame matches the mirrored port and the mirrored direction is
ingress or both (ingress and egress), the frame is sent to the mirrored port.
• If the destination port of the frame matches the mirrored port and the mirrored
direction is egress or both, the frame is sent to the monitoring port.
