9.10 Monitoring port traffic (port
mirroring)
In port mirroring, the valid data packets of one port, the source port, are
copied to another, the destination port. The data traffic at the source port is
not influenced by port mirroring.
A management tool connected at the destination port, e.g. an RMON probe,
can thus monitor the source port’s data traffic in sending and receiving
direction.
The destination port forwards the data to be sent and blocks data received.
