3.13.1 Using Mirror Port to Monitor Traffic
This function allows you to set up a ‘mirror’ port of any specified port(s) or VLAN, such that you can
monitor the traffics of the monitored port(s) or VLAN without intervening them. In effect, the traffics on
the monitored port(s) VLAN are replicated on the mirror port that you can use a protocol analyzer to
analyze the traffic for specific problem. The Port Mirroring screen in Figure 3-17 appears.
