Configuring Local Port Mirroring
Configuration prerequisites
z The source port is determined and the direction in which the packets are to be mirrored is
determined.
z The destination port is determined.
Configuration procedure
Follow these steps to configure port mirroring on Switch 4500 series:
To do… Use the command… Remarks
Enter system view
system-view
—
Create a port mirroring
group
mirroring-group group-id local
Required
In system
view
mirroring-group group-id
mirroring-port mirroring-port-list
{ both | inbound | outbound }
interface interface-type
interface-number
mirroring-group group-id
mirroring-port { both | inbound |
outbound }
Configure the
source port
for the port
mirroring
group
In port view
quit
Use either approach
You can configure multiple
source ports at a time in system
view, or you can configure the
source port in specific port view.
The configurations in the two
views have the same effect.
In system
view
mirroring-group group-id
monitor-port monitor-port-id
interface interface-type
interface-number
Configure the
destination
port for the
port mirroring
group
In port view
mirroring-group group-id
monitor-port
Use either approach
The configurations in the two
views have the same effect.
When configuring local port mirroring, note that:
z You need to configure the source and destination ports for the local port mirroring to take effect.
z The source port and the destination port cannot be a fabric port or a member port of an existing
mirroring group; besides, the destination port cannot be a member port of an aggregation group or
a port enabled with LACP or STP.
Configuring Remote Port Mirroring
A Switch 4500 can serve as a source switch, an intermediate switch, or a destination switch in a remote
port mirroring networking environment.
