6624 can support 4 mirroring sessions.

Mirrored (monitored) and mirroring (monitoring)
ports must be of identical capacity (both ports

port must be of higher capacity than the mirrored
port. (Example: A mirrored Fast Ethernet port
supports 100 Mbps, while a Mirroring Gigabit
Ethernet port supports 1000 Mbps).
