Port Mirroring
The Port Mirroring f unction can be used to monitor data being transmitted through a specif ic port. This is
done by setting up other port(s) (the mirror port) to receive the same data being transmitted f rom, or both
to and from, the port under observation. Using a mirror port allows the network administrator to sniff the
observed port to keep tabs on network activity.
