NETGEAR 24-Port Gigabit Smart Managed Pro Switch with PoE+ and 2 SFP Ports Model GS724TPv2
Configure Port Mirroring
Port mirroring selects the network traffic for analysis by a network analyzer. This is done for
specific ports of the switch. As such, many switch ports are configured as source ports and
one switch port is configured as a destination port. You can configure how traffic is mirrored
on a source port. Packets that are received on the source port, that are transmitted on a port,
or are both received and transmitted can be mirrored to the destination port.
The packet that is copied to the destination port is in the same format as the original packet
on the wire. This means that if the mirror is copying a received packet, the copied packet is
VLAN tagged or untagged as it was received on the source port. If the mirror is copying a
transmitted packet, the copied packet is VLAN tagged or untagged as it is being transmitted
on the source port.
To globally enable port mirroring, specify the destination port, and specify one or
more source ports:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see
Change the Default IP Address of the
Switch on page 9.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’s password in the Password field.
The default password is password.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select Monitoring > Mirroring > Port Mirroring.
System Up Time The time when this trap occurred, expressed in days, hours, minutes, and
