VLAN ID: indicates to which VLAN mirroring function should mirror
o
the traffic. This field specifies which VLAN traffic to be mirrored
should be redirected, and is used by switches when remote
mirroring is performed. This field is not allowed if Type of mirroring
is Mirror type, that is, only remote mirroring function will redirect
traffic to a specific VLAN. Allowed values are the VLAN range
values (from 1 to 4,095);
Reflector Port: indicates the main Source port of a remote
o
mirroring function. Reflector port is the port, at the Source (RMirror)
switch, that will receive traffic from all ports mirrored and forward
it to Intermediate (RMirror) or Destination (RMirror) remote
mirroring switch. Only Electrical ports (RJ45 and UTP cable
connection) are allowed to be reflector ports, and only these ports
are displayed at the list. Only one port can be a reflector port in a
given switch.

Source VLAN(s) Configuration:
Source VLAN configuration displays configuration of source VLAN to be used at
mirror function. This field allows mapping a VLAN-based mirroring by inserting
allowed VLAN identifiers at this field. Possible configurations are as follows.
Source VLANs: indicates which VLAN mirroring function should
o
mirror the traffic. This field allows configuring a VLAN-based
mirroring, in addition to port mirror. It is possible to monitor specific
VLAN and ports from different VLAN independently. Allowed values
are the VLAN range values (from 1 to 4,095);
Mirror: indicates that switch will operate in mirror mode,
that is, source and destination port are at this switch;
Source (RMirror): indicates that the switch will operate as
source mode, that is, destination port is at another switch.
Source and Intermediate ports are located at this switch;
Intermediate (RMirror): indicates that the switch will
operate as intermediate mode, that is, source and
destination ports are at another switch. Only Intermediate
ports are located at this switch;
Destination (RMirror): indicates that the switch will
operate as destination mode, that is, source ports are at
another switch. Intermediate and Destination ports are
located at this switch;
