Config Mirror - Extreme Networks EAS 200-24p Switch CLI Manual

Chapter 34: Mirror Command List

config mirror

Description
Used to configure a mirror port • source port pair on the switch. Traffic from any source port to a target
port can be mirrored for real-time analysis. A logic analyzer or an RMON probe then can be attached to
study the traffic crossing the source port in a completely unobtrusive manner. When mirroring port
traffic, please note that the target port must be configured in the same VLAN and operates at the same
speed as the source port. If the target port is operating at a lower speed, the source port will be forced
to drop its operating speed to match that of the target port.
