Destination device
Destination device contains destination mirroring port, and remote destination port
mirroring groups are created on destination devices. Upon receiving a mirrored packet,
the destination device checks to see if the VLAN ID of the received packet is the same
as that of the remote mirroring VLAN of the remote destination port mirroring group. If
yes, the destination device forwards the packet to the monitoring device through the
destination mirroring port.

1.1.3 Other Functions Supported by Port Mirroring

In addition, in a port mirroring group, a destination port can monitor multiple source
ports simultaneously in the mirroring group.

Required
Use either approach.
You can add ports to a
port mirroring group as
source ports in either
system view or
interface view.
In system view, you
can add multiple ports
to a port mirroring
group at one time.
While in interface view,
you can only add the
current port to a port
mirroring group.
Use either approach.
You can add a
destination port to a
port mirroring group in
either system view or
interface view. They
achieve the same
