3-16. Mirroring


Function name:

Mirror Configuration

Function description:

Mirror Configuration is to monitor the traffic of the network. For example, we
assume that Port A and Port B are Monitoring Port and Monitored Port
respectively, thus, the traffic received by Port B will be copied to Port A for
monitoring.

Note:

When configure the mirror function, you should avoid setting a port to be a
sniffer port and aggregated port at the same time. It will cause something
wrong.
