Switch Mirror Configuration

The router supports traffic mirroring on the Ethernet switch. This means that Ethernet traffic from any of the
Ethernet ports is mirrored to a target port for analysis. This function facilitates the unobtrusive monitoring of
source port activity.

To configure port traffic mirroring:

1. Click Mirror/Capture Configuration from the left navigation pane of the Switch Status page. This displays

the Switch Mirror Configuration page.

2. Under Mirror Port, select one or more of the mapped ports (or source ports) you want to mirror.

3. Under Capture Port, select the port to receive the Ethernet traffic for all mirrored ports.

4. For Mirror Feature, click Enable or Disable to enable or disable mirroring.

5. Click Apply.
