tagged with the respective Layer 3 VLAN ID. For example, in the configuration source TenGig 6/1 destination
TeGig 6/2 direction tx, if the MD port TenGig 6/1 is an untagged member of any VLAN, all monitored frames
that the MG port TeGig 6/2 receives are tagged with the VLAN ID of the MD port. Similarly, if BPDUs are
transmitted, the MG port receives them tagged with the VLAN ID 4095. This behavior might result in a
difference between the number of egress packets on the MD port and monitored packets on the MG port.
Dell Networking OS Behavior: The platform continues to mirror outgoing traffic even after an MD
participating in spanning tree protocol (STP) transitions from the forwarding to blocking.

1 Verify that the intended monitoring port has no configuration other than no shutdown, as shown in the
