Configuration Roadmap
The configuration roadmap is as follows:
1. Configure IP addresses and default routes for all interfaces on the Router, as shown in
Figure 4-9.
2. Configure a GRE tunnel to allow the hosts with private addresses to communicate over the
public network.
3. Configure the observing server to copy the mirrored packets to the observing device through
the IP network.
4. Configure Ethernet1/0/0 as an observing interface.
Data Preparation
To complete the configuration, you need the following data:
l IP addresses of mirrored interface and observing device
l GRE tunnel interfaces and interface addresses
l Type and number of the mirrored interface
l Observing server index, 1
Procedure
Step 1 Configure IP addresses for interfaces.
# Assign an IP address to each interface on the Router. This example describes the configuration
on RouterA.
