By default, no remote destination
group exists on a device.
Configuring the monitor port for a remote destination group
You can configure the monitor port for a mirroring group in system view, or assign a port to a mirroring
group as the monitor port in interface view. The two modes have the same results.
When you configure the monitor port for a remote destination group, follow these guidelines:
• Do not enable the spanning tree feature on the monitor port.
• Use a monitor port only for port mirroring to make sure the data monitoring device receives and
analyzes only the mirrored traffic rather than a mix of mirrored traffic and normally forwarded
traffic.
• A mirroring group must contain only one monitor port.

Configuring the remote probe VLAN for a remote destination group
You must first create a static VLAN before you configure it as a remote probe VLAN.
When you configure the remote probe VLAN for a remote destination group, follow these guidelines:
• When a VLAN is configured as a remote probe VLAN, use the remote probe VLAN for port
mirroring exclusively.
• Configure the same remote probe VLAN for the remote destination groups on the source and
destination devices.
