Port Mirroring
The Avaya P130 provides port mirroring for additional network monitoring
functionality. You can filter the traffic and mirror either outgoing traffic from the
source port or both incoming and outgoing traffic. This allows you to monitor the
network traffic you need.
SMON
The P130 supports Avaya’s ground-breaking SMON Switched Network
Monitoring, which the IETF has now adopted as a standard (RFC2613). SMON
provides an unprecedented top-down monitoring of switched network traffic at the
following levels:
•
Enterprise Monitoring
• Switch Monitoring
• VLAN Monitoring
• Port-level Monitoring
This top-down approach gives you rapid troubleshooting and performance
trending to keep the network running optimally.
Note: Visability™ MultiService Network Manager Software is required to run
SMON monitoring.
