Data Preparation
To configure remote flow mirroring, you need the following data.
No. Data
1 Observing server index, IP addresses of mirrored devices, IP address of the mirrored
interface, DSCP field of packets
2 Type and number of the mirrored interface
3 Names of the traffic classifier, traffic behavior, traffic policy, and traffic classification
rules
 
4.6.2 Configuring the Observing Server
The observing server forwards the packets copied from the mirrored interface to the observing
device through the IP network.
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
observe-server [ observe-server-index ] destination-ip destination-ip-address 
source-ip source-ip-address [ dscp dscp-value ]
The observing server is configured.
NOTE
l destination-ip-address is the IP address of the observing device; source-ip-address is the IP address
of the mirrored interface.
l If the mirrored interface and observing device use private addresses, perform the Configuration Guide
- VPN task before configuring the observing server.
