Remote Mirroring Destination Using a Port Interface
and Directional Mirroring Criteria
In the network shown in figure B-33, the system operator has connected
another traffic analyzer to port B10 (in VLAN 40) on switch D, and wants to
monitor all traffic entering Switch A from client "X" on port C12. The operator
does this by configuring a mirroring destination (with an exit port of B10) on
switch D, and a remote mirroring session on Switch A. For this example,
assume that the mirroring configuration from the proceeding example
remains in place. This means that a different mirroring session number and
UDP port number will be needed. Note that the port on which the mirrored
traffic for this example enters switch D, port A20, must be in the same VLAN
as the configured exit port for Traffic Analyzer 2, which is port B10.
Because this example and the proceeding example create remote mirroring
between the same source and destination IP addresses, the random UDP port
number used in this example must be different than the one used in the
proceeding example.

Figure B-33. Example Topology for Remote Mirroring from a Port Interface
The operator does the following:
1. On switch D, configure a mirroring destination using port B10 In VLAN 40
as the exit port.
Using in to specify the traffic selection criteria, configure mirroring ses-
2.
sion 2 on switch A for port C12. (The proceeding example configured
session 1 on the same switch.)
