Port mirroring

• If you have NPIV or 10-bit address mode enabled on a Brocade 300, 5300, 5410, 5450, 5460,
5470, 5480, 7800, and the M5424 platforms, all devices from the same NPIV port or 10-bit
addressing mode hit the same mirror connection, regardless of different AL_PAs, since the
validation is done only for the first 16-bits of the SID/DID.
• Port mirroring is not supported for the shared area ports of 48-port blades in the default
switch. However, when the ports are assigned to a 10-bit address logical switch, port mirroring
is supported.
On the Brocade FR4-18i blade, if you define multiple mirror connections for the same F_PORT (SID
or DID), all the connections must share the same mirror port.
Supported platforms
Port mirroring is supported only in FC ports. In general, a platform or blade supporting port
mirroring supports both the mirror ports and the mirror connections. Exemptions are listed in
Table 8.
