Displaying Port
Ethernet
Statistics
You may want to display the status of a port as well as configuration
information about a port on the switch. The syntax of this command is:
show interface ge(1-28)
To display the port ethernet statistics for port 17, enter the following
command:
switch# show interface ge17
See “SHOW INTERFACE” on page 90 for a sample display of this
command.
Setting Port
Mirroring
The port mirror feature allows for the unobtrusive monitoring of ingress or
egress traffic on one or more ports on a switch, without impacting network
performance or speed. It copies the traffic from a specified port to another
port where the traffic can be monitored with a network analyzer.
The port whose traffic is mirrored is called the source port. The port where
the traffic is copied to is referred to as the destination port. The syntax of
this command is:
mirror interface ge<1-28> direction
both|receive|transmit
To set port mirroring with port 5 as the source port and port 7 as the
destination port, enter the following commands:
switch# configure terminal
