Note:
z To mirror tagged packets, you need to configure VLAN VPN on the reflector port.
z The reflector port cannot forward traffics as a normal port. Therefore, it is
recommended that you use a idle and in-down-state port as the reflector port, and
be careful to not add other settings on this port.
z It is recommended that you do not configure a VLAN as the remote-probe VLAN if
the mac-address max-mac-count 0 command is configured on a port in this VLAN.
Otherwise, remote mirroring may not work properly.
z Be sure not to configure a port used to connect the intermediate and destination
switches as the mirroring source port. Otherwise traffic disorder may occur in the
network.
