Data detection device Figure 1-1 A port mirroring implementation H3C S3100 series Ethernet switches support two kinds of port mirroring: local port mirroring and remote port mirroring. Local port mirroring: a device copies packets passing through one or more source ports of the device to the destination port.
Operation Manual (For Soliton) – Mirroring H3C S3100 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 Mirroring Configuration 1.1.2 Remote Port Mirroring Remote port mirroring does not require the source and destination ports to be on the same device. The source and destination ports can be located on multiple devices across the network.

1.2.2 Configuring Remote Port Mirroring Note: An S3100 series Ethernet switch can serve as a source switch, an intermediate switch, or a destination switch in a remote port mirroring networking environment. I. Configuration on a switch acting as a source switch Configuration prerequisites The source port, the reflector port, and the remote-probe VLAN are determined.
