Object Description
• Port to mirror on
Port to mirror also known as the mirror port. Frames from ports that have either source
(rx) or destination (tx) mirroring enabled are mirrored on this port. Disabled disables
mirroring.
•
Port The logical port for the settings contained in the same row,
*
means selection of all ports
of Managed Switch.
•
Mode Select mirror mode.

Rx only: Frames received at this port are mirrored to the mirroring port.
Frames transmitted are not mirrored.

Tx only: Frames transmitted from this port are mirrored to the mirroring port.
Frames received are not mirrored.

Disabled: Neither frames transmitted nor frames received are mirrored.

Both: Frames received and frames transmitted are mirrored to the mirror port.
For a given port, a frame is only transmitted once. It is therefore not possible to mirror Tx frames on
the mirror port. Because of this, mode for the selected mirror port is limited to Disabled or Rx only.
