Description

Port to mirror on

Port to mirror

also known as the mirror port. Frames from ports that have either source

(rx) or destination (tx) mirroring enabled are mirrored on this port. Disabled disables
mirroring.

Port

The logical port for the settings contained in the same row.

Select mirror mode.
Rx only

: Frames received at this port are mirrored to the mirroring port. Frames

transmitted are not mirrored.
Tx only

: Frames transmitted from this port are mirrored to the mirroring port. Frames

received are not mirrored.
Disabled

: Neither frames transmitted or frames received are mirrored.

Mode

Both

: Frames received and frames transmitted are mirrored to the mirror port.

For a given port, a frame is only transmitted once. It is therefore not possible to mirror Tx frames on
the mirror port. Because of this, mode for the selected mirror port is limited to Disabled or Rx only.
