Displaying mirror and monitor port configuration

Syntax: set mirror-interface <slot number>/<port number>
The <slot number> parameter specifies the port number on a device.
The <port number> parameter specifies the mirror port number.
You can specify up to 4 mirror ports for each PBR route map instance. To do so, enter the set mirror
interface command for each mirror port.

Displaying mirror and monitor port configuration

To display the inbound and outbound traffic mirrored to each mirror port, enter the following
command at any level of the CLI.
BigIron RX# show monitor config
Monitored Port 3/1
Monitored Port 4/1
Syntax: show monitor config
This output does not display the input traffic mirrored to mirror port 1/2 from port 3/1 and
mirrored to mirror port 1/1 from port 4/1 because the mirroring of this traffic is not explicitly
configured.
To display the actual traffic mirrored to each mirror port, enter the following command at any level
of the CLI.
BigIron RX# show monitor actual
Monitored Port 3/1
Input traffic mirrored to: 1/1(configured) 1/2 2/1(configured)
Output traffic mirrored to: 1/1
Monitored Port 4/1
Input traffic mirrored to: 1/2(configured) 1/1
Output traffic mirrored to: 1/2
Syntax: show monitor actual
This output displays the input traffic mirrored to mirror port 1/2 from port 3/1 and mirrored to
mirror port 1/1 from port 4/1, which are not explicitly configured.

Enabling WAN PHY mode support

A 10 Gigabit Ethernet port can be configured to use SONET/SDH framing for Layer 1 transport
across a WAN transport backbone by configuring the port in WAN PHY mode. The default is for the
port to operate in LAN PHY mode.
To enable a 10 GB Ethernet port to support WAN PHY mode, use the following command.
BigIron RX#(config-if-e10000-6/3)# phy-mode wan
Syntax: [no] phy-mode wan
To change the PHY mode for a port back to the default of LAN PHY mode, use the no condition
before the command.
