Configuring Layer 2 Remote Port Mirroring - HPE FlexNetwork 5510 HI Series Network Management And Monitoring Configuration Manual

•
If you have configured a reflector port for a remote source group, do not configure an egress
port for it.
•
A VLAN can act as the remote probe VLAN for only one remote source group. As a best
practice, use the remote probe VLAN for port mirroring exclusively. Do not create a VLAN
interface or perform other configurations for the VLAN.
•
A remote probe VLAN must be a static VLAN. To delete this static VLAN, first remove the
remote probe VLAN configuration by using the undo mirroring-group remote-probe vlan
command.
•
If the remote probe VLAN of a remote mirroring group is removed, the remote mirroring group
will become invalid.
Configuration procedure
