Port Mirroring Commands
The Port Mirroring commands in the CLI are listed (along with the appropriate parameters) in the
following table:
Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections:
Command Parameters
config mirror port <port> {[add | delete] source ports <portlist> [rx | tx | both]}
enable mirror
disable mirror
show mirror
config mirror port
Purpose Used to configure a mirror port - source port pair on the switch. Traffic from
any source port to a target port can be mirrored for real-time analysis. A logic
analyzer or an RMON probe can then be attached to study the traffic crossing
the source port in a completely obtrusive manner.
Syntax config mirror port <port> {[add | delete] source ports <portlist> [rx | tx |
both]}
Description This command allows a range of ports to have all of their traffic also sent to a
designated port, where a network sniffer or other device can monitor the
network traffic. In addition, users can specify that only traffic received by or
sent by one or both is mirrored to the Target port.
Parameters <port> - This specifies the Target port (the port where mirrored packets will be
received).
[add | delete] – Specifies if the user wishes to add or delete ports to be
mirrored that are specified in the source ports parameter.
source ports – The port or ports being mirrored. This cannot include the
Target port.
<portlist> - This specifies a port or range of ports that will be mirrored. That is,
the range of ports in which all traffic will be copied and sent to the Target port.
rx - Allows the mirroring of only packets received by (flowing into) the port or
ports in the port list.
tx - Allows the mirroring of only packets sent out from (flowing out of) the port
or ports in the port list.
both - Mirrors all the packets received or sent by the port or ports in the port
list.
Restrictions The Target port cannot be listed as a source port. Only Administrator-level
users can issue this command.
