51.2 Configuring Mirroring on ES boards' Port
As an alternative to configure ES Mirror Filters, you may configure ES board to mirror
all traffic from/to the specific port (either internal or external). This effectively mirrors all
traffic of the specific SC or Media Gateway board. Note, however, that capacity of the
mirror port is limited therefore you may not be able to mirror traffic from more than a
few internal ES board’s ports. Also note that capture files, produced by mirroring all
traffic on the specific port, may be very large and therefore their analysis may be very
time-consuming.
To configure ES boards to mirror all traffic on the specific port:
1. Click
to access the Media Gateway status screen.
2. Select the active Ethernet Switch (ES) board.
3. In the Navigation Pane, select Switch Ports; the ES Board Ports list is displayed.
4. Select the relevant ES board Port from the list. Use the Name column to
determine which SC or Media Gateway board is connected to each ES board’s
port.
5. Right-click the selected ES Board Port and choose Change Mirror Mode >
Ingress / Egress / Both to enable mirroring of ingress (incoming), egress
(outgoing) or all traffic from the specific port.
6. Repeat steps 2-4 on the standby Ethernet Switch board (if needed).
