6.16 Port Mirroring
Port mirroring is a method for monitoring traffic in switched networks. Traffic through
ports can be monitored by one specific port, which means traffic that goes in or out
monitored (source) ports will be duplicated into mirror (destination) port.
„ Destination Port: There is only one port can be selected to be destination (mirror)
port for monitoring both RX and TX traffic which come from source port. Or, use one
of two ports for monitoring RX traffic only and the other one for TX traffic only. User
can connect mirror port to LAN analyzer or Netxray.
„ Source Port: The ports that user wants to monitor. All monitored port traffic will be
copied to mirror (destination) port. User can select multiple source ports by checking
the RX or TX check boxes to be monitored.
„ And then, click Apply button.
