Web-Based Network Management

The Switch supports up to three trunk groups. Trunks are groups of ports that are banded together to form a
single, logical, high-bandwidth data pipe.

Items in the above window are defined as follows:

Anchor The Anchor port for the trunk group. All configuration settings changes made to the anchor port

will automatically be made to the other ports in the trunk.

Name The user-assigned name of the trunk group.

Members The continuous number of ports that will be members of the trunk group.

State Allows the trunk group to be Enabled or Disabled.

Switch This field allows you to select the desired Switch.

Port Mirroring

Figure 7-7. Port Mirroring window

The Switch allows you to copy frames transmitted and received on a port and redirect the copies to another
port. You can attach a monitoring device to the mirrored port, such as a sniffer or an RMON probe, to view
details about the packets passing through the first port.
