Logging Packet Mirroring Information
The JUNOSe software's packet mirroring feature provides two secure methods of
capturing and displaying packet mirroring-related information. Both methods
ensure security by requiring the mirror-enable command to be enabled.
! Secure logging—Captures packet mirroring information to a local secure log on
the router.
! SNMP secure packet mirroring traps—Captures and reports packet mirroring
information to an external device; you can then use the privileged show mirror
trap and show snmp traps CLI commands to view secure trap configuration
information.
By default, the JUNOSe software captures packet mirroring-related activity to a
secure local mirror log. No action is required on your part to enable or disable the
logging process; however, only authorized users can access the secure log.
The secure logging feature includes the following commands. The mirror-enable
command must be enabled to make the commands visible in the CLI.
! clear mirror log—Clears entries in the secure log
! show mirror log—Displays information in the secure log
Use to clear log entries related to packet mirroring.
!
! This command is visible only to authorized users—the mirror-enable
command must be enabled prior to using this command.
! Example
host1#clear mirror log
! There is no no version.
! Use to display failure messages and information for secure policies.
! This command and the output are visible only to authorized users—the
mirror-enable command must be enabled prior to using this command.
! All normal E-series system log messages are suppressed for packet
mirroring-related policy operations.
! Field descriptions
! Time—Day, date, and time of failure
! Mirror-ID—Unique identifier of the mirrored session
