Use the Mirroring & RSPAN Configuration page to
mirror traffic from any local source port to a
target port on the same switch for real-time
analysis. You can then attach a logic analyzer or
RMON probe to the target port and study the
traffic crossing the source port in a completely
unobtrusive manner.

General port mirroring configured on the Mirroring & RSPAN Configuration
page and ACL-based port mirroring are implemented independently. When
port mirroring is enabled on the Mirroring & RSPAN Configuration page,
mirroring will occur regardless of any configuration settings made on the
ACL Ports Configuration page (see
Lists" on page 98) or the ACE Configuration page (see
Control Lists" on page 101).
