Network Monitoring Port Features

Network Monitoring Port Features
From the web browser interface and switch console you can designate a
port for monitoring traffic on one of the other switch ports. The monitoring is
accomplished by copying all traffic from the specified monitored port to the
designated monitoring port.
N o t e :
It is possible in networks with high traffic levels to copy more traffic to a
monitor port than the link can support. In this situation, some packets may
not be copied to the monitor port.
