Configuring MAC Address Mirroring

Use the MAC Address > Mirror (Add) page to mirror traffic matching a specified source address
from any port on the switch to a target port for real-time analysis. You can then attach a logic
analyzer or RMON probe to the target port and study the traffic crossing the source port in a
completely unobtrusive manner.

Command Usage

When mirroring traffic from a MAC address, ingress traffic with the specified source address
entering any port in the switch, other than the target port, will be mirrored to the destination
port.
