11-4 Mirror
You can mirror traffic from any source port to a target port for real-time analysis. You can then
attach a logic analyzer or RMON probe to the target port and study the traffic crossing the
source port in a completely unobtrusive manner.
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.
Web Interface
To configure the Mirror in the web interface:
1. Click Diagnostics and Mirroring.
2. Scroll to select Monitor Destination Port on which port.
3. Scroll to disabled, enable, TX Only and RX only to set the Port mirror mode.
4. Click the Apply to save the setting.
5. If you want to cancel the setting then you need to click the Reset button.
6. It will revert to previously saved values.
