5.25PORT REDIRECT FUNCTION SCREEN

The Port Redirect Function screen may not be available depending on the operational mode that has been set for the module. Refer to your Release Notes to see what operational modes support the Port Redirect Function. Refer to

Section 5.15.9, Setting the Operational Mode, for instructions on configuring the operational mode of the module.

The Port Redirect Function screen, Figure 5-30, allows the user to set each one of the ports on the DLE2X-MA and DLE3X-MA as a source or destination port. A port can be set to have one or more destination ports. For example, port 1 can be set as a source port with three destinations, ports 2, 3, and 4. Traffic from port 1 is then automatically redirected to ports 2, 3, and 4. Port 1 can also serve as a destination port for other ports. The port redirect function is extremely useful for troubleshooting purposes, as it allows traffic to be sent to a particular port(s) where, with the use of an analyzer or RMON probe, all current traffic from the source port(s) can be examined.
