Mirror Port
All traffic that goes through one or more LAN ports of the appliance can be duplicated into one designated
mirror port. For example, all traffic that passes through LAN1 and LAN2 is duplicated into LAN5, which is
configured as the mirror port. You can only configure one mirror port at a time.
Use Case If an external device is connected to the mirror port, it receives all traffic that goes through
LAN1/LAN2 of the appliance. This enables you to monitor traffic that goes through the appliance from the
external device.
The mirror port is the opposite of the existing monitor port feature, in which the traffic from an external
source such as a network switch or router goes into the (WAN) port of the appliance, so the appliance can
inspect the traffic going through the external source.
