CN4093 Application Guide for N/OS 8.3
This section describes the composition of monitored packets in the CN4093, based
on the configuration of the ports.
Packets mirrored at port egress are mirrored prior to VLAN tag processing and
may have a different PVID than packets that egress the port toward their actual
network destination.
Packets mirrored at port ingress are not modified.
The following procedure may be used to configure port mirroring for the example
shown in
Figure 65 on page
CN 4093(config)# port-mirroring enable
CN 4093# show port-mirroring
Port mirroring is enabled
