Mirroring Configurations
Incoming or outgoing traffic from any source port can be mirrored for realtime analysis. A logic
analyzer or a RMON probe can then be attached to study the traffic crossing the source port in a
completely unobtrusive manner. When mirroring port traffic, remember the following conditions:
• The target port should be operating at the same or higher speed than the source port. If the
target port is operating at a lower speed than the source port, packets will be lost.
• For optimum performance, you should mirror three or fewer ports at any given time.
To configure a port for mirroring
1. In the left panel, click Mirroring Configurations.
2. Configure these fields.
3. Click Apply.

Target Port
Specifies the port where information will be duplicated and sent for capture
and network analysis. This is the port where a network analyzer would be
attached to capture packets duplicated from the source port.
Mirrored Port
Specifies which port to be mirror and which packets to be mirror. This port is
the source of the packets. Use one of the following values:
• Rx—Mirror incoming packet.
• Tx—Mirror outgoing packets.
• Both—Mirror both incoming and outgoing packets.
• None—Do not mirror.
If the port is grayed out, the port cannot be selected for mirroring.
