RSPAN Settings
This table controls the RSPAN function. The purpose of the RSPAN function is to mirror the packets to a remote
switch. The packet travels from the switch where the monitored packet is received, through the intermediate switch,
then to the switch where the sniffer is attached. The first switch is also named the source switch. RSPAN VLAN
mirroring will only work when RSPAN Global Settings are enabled. RSPAN redirect function will work when RSPAN is
enabled and at least one RSPAN VLAN has been configured with redirect ports.
