4.5.2 Port Mirroring

The port mirroring function is accomplished by setting the following items.

„

Destination port: Theoretically it’s possible to set more than one destination port in a

network. Actually the port mirroring function will lower the network throughput, and
therefore it’s recommended to set “only one” destination port in a network.

„

Monitored packets:

(1) Disable: means this function is disabled.

(2) RX: means copy the incoming packets of the selected source port to the selected
destination port.

(3) TX: means copy the outgoing packets of the selected source port to the selected
destination port.

(4) Rx & Tx: means the combination of Rx and Tx.

„

Source port: the traffic source that will be copied to the destination port.

Take the following configuration as an example.
(a) Source port: Port 1 ~ Port 4.
(b) Destination Port: Port 5 ~Port 8.
(c) Mirrored packet: Rx.
This means all packets received at port 1 ~port 4 will be copied to port 5, port 6, port 7 and
port 8.Care should be taken that the more source ports and destination ports is set, the
lower network throughput is available for normal traffic.
