Configuring Remote Port Mirroring - H3C S5600 SERIES Operation Manual

To do...
Configure
the source
port for the
port
mirroring
group
Configure
the
destination
port for the
port
mirroring
group
When configuring local port mirroring, note that:
You need to configure the source and destination ports for the local port mirroring to
take effect.
The source port and the destination port cannot be a fabric port or a member port of an
existing mirroring group; besides, the destination port cannot be a member port of an
aggregation group or a port enabled with LACP or STP.

Configuring Remote Port Mirroring

An S5600 series Ethernet switch can serve as a source switch, an intermediate switch, or
a destination switch in a remote port mirroring networking environment.
Configuration on a switch acting as a source switch
1) Configuration prerequisites
The source port, the reflector port, and the remote-probe VLAN are determined.
Layer 2 connectivity is ensured between the source and destination switches over the
remote-probe VLAN.
The direction of the packets to be monitored is determined.
2) Configuration procedure
Follow these steps to perform configurations on the source switch:
Use the command...
mirroring-group group-id
In system mirroring-port
view mirroring-port-list { both |
inbound | outbound }
interface interface-type
interface-number
In port
mirroring-group group-id
view
mirroring-port { both |
inbound | outbound }
quit
In system
mirroring-group group-id
view monitor-port monitor-port-id
interface interface-type
interface-number
In port
view
mirroring-group group-id
monitor-port
1-5
Remarks
Use either approach
You can configure multiple
source ports at a time in
system view, or you can
configure the source port in
specific port view. The
configurations in the two
views have the same effect.
Use either approach
The configurations in the
two views have the same
effect.
