Displaying And Maintaining Port Mirroring; Mirroring Configuration Examples; Local Port Mirroring Configuration Example - 3Com 5500-EI PWR Install Manual

To do...
Configure trunk port to
permit packets from the
remote-probe VLAN
Return to system view
Create a remote destination
mirroring group
Configure the destination
port for the remote
destination mirroring group
Configure the remote-probe
VLAN for the remote
destination mirroring group
When configuring a destination switch, note that:
A Switch 5500-EI acting as the destination switch in remote port mirroring networking
does not support bidirectional packet mirroring (the both keyword).
The destination port of remote port mirroring cannot be a member port of an existing
mirroring group, a fabric port, a member port of an aggregation group, or a port enabled
with LACP or STP.
Only an existing static VLAN can be configured as the remote-probe VLAN. To remove
a remote-probe VLAN, you need to restore it to a normal VLAN first. A remote port
mirroring group gets invalid if the corresponding remote port mirroring VLAN is
removed.
