Configuring the monitor port for a remote destination group

Either you can configure the monitor port for a mirroring group in system view, or you can assign the

current port to a mirroring group as the monitor port in interface view. The two methods lead to the same

result.
When you configure the monitor port for the remote destination group, follow these guidelines:

Do not enable the spanning tree feature on the monitor port.

H3C recommends that you use a monitor port only for port mirroring. This is to make sure that the
data monitoring device receives and analyzes only the mirrored traffic rather than a mix of mirrored

traffic and normally forwarded traffic.

You cannot configure the monitor port in a mirroring group as a port in an RRPP ring.

A mirroring group contains only one monitor port.
