Configuring SMON MIB Port Mirroring

Overview
SMON port mirroring support on Enterasys SecureStack B2, B3, C2 and C3 devices allows you to redirect traffic
on ports remotely using SMON MIBs. This is useful for troubleshooting or problem solving when network
management through the console port, telnet, or SSH is not feasible.
Procedures
Perform the following steps to configure and monitor port mirroring using SMON MIB objects.
To create and enable a port mirroring instance:
1. Open a MIB browser, such as Netsight MIB Tools.
2. In the MIB directory tree, navigate to the portCopyEntry folder and expand it.
3. Select the portCopyStatus MIB.
4. Enter a desired source and target port in the Instance field using the format source.target.
Example: 3.2 would create a relationship where source port ge.1.3 would be mirrored to target port
ge.1.2.
NOTE: In order to configure a port mirroring relationship, both source and destination interfaces must be
enabled and operational (up).
5. Enter MIB option 4 (createAndGo) and perform an SNMP Set operation.
6. (Optional) Use the CLI to verify the port mirroring instance has been created and enabled as shown in the
following example:
C3(su)->show port mirroring
