DESCRIPTION
Select this check box to activate port mirroring on the Switch. Clear this check box to disable the
feature.
The monitor port is the port you copy the traffic to in order to examine it in more detail without
interfering with the traffic flow on the original port(s). Enter the port number of the monitor port.
Enter the VLAN ID that the Switch adds to the mirrored traffic before forwarding it out. This
allows you to separate the mirrored traffic from the non-mirrored traffic on the monitor port.
The tag will be added even the mirrored traffic is double-tagged.
This field displays the port number.
Settings in this row apply to all ports.
Use this row only if you want to make some settings the same for all ports. Use this row first to
set the common settings and then make adjustments on a port-by-port basis.
Note: Changes in this row are copied to all the ports as soon as you make them.
Select this option to mirror the traffic on a port.
Specify the direction of the traffic to mirror by selecting from the drop-down list box. Choices are
Egress (outgoing), Ingress (incoming) and Both.
Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch's run-time memory. The Switch loses these
changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to save
your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.
Click Cancel to reset the fields.
