From the Switch Static Configuration page, select Port Mirroring
Configuration. Port mirroring is a method for monitoring traffic in
switched networks. Traffic through all the ports can be monitored by
one specific port. Press the Space key to toggle between the
configuration options:
• Port mirroring state: Use the space bar to toggle between
“Disabled” and “Enabled”
• Analysis Port: Select which port will act as a “sniffer” port to
monitor port traffic.
• Action: Select the ports to monitor. All monitored port traffic will
be copied to the “sniffer” port. You can select a maximum of 9
monitored ports in the switch. Under the Action option, you
may choose whether you want to monitor RX frames only or TX
frames only, or both.
