General - Siemens SCALANCE XB-200 Web Based Management

If a protocol analyzer is connected to the monitor port, the data traffic at the mirrored port
can be recorded without interrupting the connection. This means that the data traffic can be
investigated without being affected. This is possible only if a free port is available on the
device as the monitor port.

Mirroring General
On this page, you can enable or disable the mirroring function and make the basic settings.
Note
If the maximum data rate of the mirrored port is higher than that of the monitor port, data
may be lost and the monitor port no longer reflects the data traffic at the mirrored port.
Several ports can be mirrored to one monitor port at the same time.
Disable port mirroring if you want to connect a normal end device to the monitor port.
