3-4. Mirror
The Mirror function of the POEGEM12T2SFP switches is used to capture data from a particular
port on the switch. Any port on the switch can be selected as the monitoring port; this port will be
used to capture data from another port on the switch using third party data capturing software.
Data can be captured from more than one port on the switch simultaneously therefore you can
have one monitoring port and several other ports being monitored by the one port.
