Configuring Monitor Link

Before configuring a monitor link group, you must create a monitor link group and configure member
ports for it. A monitor link group consists of an uplink port and one or multiple downlink ports. The uplink
port can be a manually-configured or static LACP link aggregation group, an Ethernet port, or a smart
link group. The downlink ports can be manually-configured link aggregation groups or static LACP link
aggregation groups, or Ethernet ports.
