Ethernet Settings (Port Monitoring) screen

To access this screen, do one of the following:

Under Ethernet Settings in the left navigation tree, click Port Monitoring.

On the home page, in the Network section, click Port Monitoring.

The port monitoring screen is accessible to all users with the Port Monitoring role assigned to their VC role.

All other users have read-only access.
Port monitoring enables network traffic on a set of server ports to be duplicated to an unused uplink port so
that network traffic on those server ports can be monitored, debugged, or both.

CAUTION:

The network analyzer port should only be connected directly to a network analyzer.

Improper connection of this port or improper configuration of port monitoring could result in

network loops and cause a network outage.

IMPORTANT:

HP recommends that you do not use port monitoring with an analyzer in loopback

configuration with any VC module.

When port monitoring is enabled, a warning icon appears in the banner at the top of the page.
