The VLAN redirect function is very useful for troubleshooting purposes. It allows all inbound and
outbound traffic from one or more source VLANs to be sent to a destination VLAN where all
current traffic from the source VLANs can be examined using analyzers, RMON probes, or IDS
sensors.
NOTE: Although traffic associated with a particular VLAN is sent to the destination port,
normal switching is still performed for all frames on the source port.
The Redirect Errors function is not supported on this screen.
How to Access
Use the arrow keys to highlight the VLAN REDIRECT CONFIGURATION menu item on the
Redirect Configuration Menu screen and press ENTER. The VLAN Redirect Configuration
screen,
