Mirror Port Commands

This section describes how to mirror traffic from a source port to a target port.

Mirror Port Commands

Command	Function

port monitor	Syntax:
This command configures	port monitor interface [rx tx]
a mirror session.	no port monitor interface
a mirror session.	• interface - ethernet unit/port (source port)
Use the no form to clear a	• interface - ethernet unit/port (source port)
Use the no form to clear a	• unit - Stack unit. (Range: 1-8)
mirror session.	• unit - Stack unit. (Range: 1-8)
mirror session.	• port - Port number. (Range: 1-26)
	• port - Port number. (Range: 1-26)
	• rx - Mirror received packets.
	• tx - Mirror transmitted packets.
	Default Setting: No mirror session is defined.
	Command Mode: Interface Configuration (Ethernet, destination port)
	Command Usage: You can mirror traffic from any source port to a destination
	port for real-time analysis. You can then attach a logic analyzer or RMON probe to
	the destination port and study the traffic crossing the source port in a completely
	unobtrusive manner.
	• The destination port is set by specifying an Ethernet interface.
	• The mirror port and monitor port speeds should match, otherwise traffic may be
	dropped from the monitor port.
	You can create multiple mirror sessions, but all sessions must share the same
	destination port. However, you should avoid sending too much traffic to the desti-
	nation port from multiple source ports.
	Example: The following example configures the switch to mirror received packets
	from port 6 to 11:
	Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/11
	Console(config-if)#port monitor ethernet 1/6 rx
	Console(config-if)#

show port monitor	Syntax: show port monitor [interface]
This command displays	• interface - ethernet unit/port (source port)
mirror information.	• unit - Stack unit. (Range: 1-8)
	• port - Port number. (Range: 1-26)
	Default Setting: Shows all sessions.
	Command Mode: Privileged Exec
	Command Usage: This command displays the currently configured source port,
	destination port, and mirror mode (i.e., RX, TX).
	Example: The following shows mirroring configured from port 6 to port 11:
	Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/11
	Console(config-if)#port monitor ethernet 1/6 rx
	Console(config-if)#end
	Console#show port monitor
	Port Mirroring

	Source port(monitored port)	:Eth1/6

NXA-ENET24 specifications

The AMX NXA-ENET24 is a versatile and powerful networked control interface designed to meet the growing demands of modern AV systems. This network switch offers an exceptional combination of reliability, performance, and scalability, making it an ideal choice for professional environments such as conference rooms, educational facilities, and control rooms.

One of the key features of the NXA-ENET24 is its 24-port configuration, allowing for extensive connectivity options. Each port supports 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds, ensuring that high bandwidth applications are handled with ease. Additionally, the switch incorporates advanced auto-negotiation technology, which automatically configures the optimal speed and duplex mode for connected devices. This ensures seamless connectivity and minimizes the risk of network disruptions.

The NXA-ENET24 is designed with advanced management capabilities, including support for VLANs, which helps to segment network traffic for enhanced security and performance. Network administrators can easily create virtual local area networks to optimize traffic flow and reduce congestion. This feature is particularly beneficial in environments where multiple AV systems operate concurrently.

Another significant characteristic of the NXA-ENET24 is its support for Power over Ethernet, or PoE. This feature enables the switch to deliver electrical power alongside data through the network cables. As a result, devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points can be powered directly from the switch, simplifying deployment and reducing the need for additional power sources.

Monitoring and management of the switch are made easier through a user-friendly interface. The NXA-ENET24 supports SNMP for network management, allowing users to monitor performance metrics, configure settings, and receive alerts in case of issues. This level of oversight is crucial for maintaining the stability of AV systems in mission-critical applications.

Durability is another hallmark of the NXA-ENET24 design. The switch features a robust chassis that is engineered to withstand the rigors of professional use. With cooling mechanisms in place and a fanless design, the NXA-ENET24 operates quietly and efficiently, making it suitable for environments where noise is a concern.

In conclusion, the AMX NXA-ENET24 is a powerful, reliable, and feature-rich network switch that effectively supports modern AV applications. With its extensive connectivity options, advanced management capabilities, PoE support, and durable design, it is an excellent choice for integrators and organizations looking to optimize their network infrastructure.
