ATX Port Mirroring

Figure 6-1. The ATX Port Mirroring Window

The Port Mirroring window features a port selection area (at the right side of the window), with selection buttons for each of the ATX’s managed ports.

NOTE

The local management port (i.e., port 1) is not available for mirroring, and is therefore grayed out.

The left side of this window features ﬁelds which allow you to select the mirror type (local, remote, or off), and specify a diagnostic port. Selection buttons below these ﬁelds allow you to either discard or truncate oversized packets that arrive at a local diagnostic port.

Conﬁguring Port Mirroring

The Port Mirroring window is used differently depending upon whether the ports being mirrored are local (i.e., being managed by the ATX you are modeling) or remote (i.e., being managed by another ATX in your network that is sending mirrored trafﬁc to the ATX you are modeling). If you are mirroring trafﬁc to a remote ATX, you must conﬁgure mirroring on both the local and remote devices.
