To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Configure the remote-probe VLAN
for the remote source mirroring
group

mirroring-group group-id
remote-probe vlan
remote

-probe-vlan-id

Required

When configuring the source switch, note that:

z

All ports of a remote source mirroring group are on the same device. Each remote source mirroring
group can be configured with only one reflector port.

z

The reflector port cannot be a member port of an existing mirroring group, a member port of an
aggregation group, or a port enabled with LACP or STP. It must be an access port and cannot be
configured with the functions like VLAN-VPN, port loopback detection, QoS, port security, and so
on.

z

You cannot modify the duplex mode, port rate, and MDI attribute of a reflector port.

z

Only an existing static VLAN can be configured as the remote-probe VLAN. To remove a
remote-probe VLAN, you need to restore it to a normal VLAN first. A remote port mirroring group
gets invalid if the corresponding remote port mirroring VLAN is removed.

z

Do not configure a port connecting the intermediate switch or destination switch as the mirroring
source port. Otherwise, traffic disorder may occur in the network.

Configuration on the device acting as an intermediate switch

1) Configuration

prerequisites

z

The trunk ports and the remote-probe VLAN are determined.

z

Layer 2 connectivity is ensured between the source and destination switches over the
remote-probe VLAN.

2) Configuration

procedure
