Mirroring

The Port mirroring is a method for monitor traffic in switched networks. Traffic through

ports can be monitored by one specific port, which means traffic 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.
