Definition

 

 

<mod-port-range>

Specifies a mirror port range. The first mod-port-range in

 

the command string is the port mirror rule identifier. It

 

should be the physical port range for the rules associated

 

fabric port. The source-port mod-port-range is the single

 

port or the complete physical port range for the fabric port

 

under investigation.

 

 

<mod-port-spec>

Specifies a particular port.

 

 

mirror-port

Port from which you want to send the traffic. This port can

 

be on another module in the switch.

 

 

piggyback-port

The port that is used for bidirectional port mirroring. The

 

specified port is unavailable for other uses.

 

Note: Eighty-series modules do not support piggyback

 

ports.

 

 

sampling

Specifies how source port traffic is to be sampled (always,

 

disabled or periodic based on max-packets-sec).

 

 

max-packets-sec

The maximum number of packets per second that are

 

served by the mirror port. Only used when sampling is set

 

to periodic. Valid values are 0, and 52 to 1,000,000.

 

Note: To mirror inbound traffic only, select a source port

 

and a mirror port, not a piggyback port.
