Enterasys Networks 9034313-07 manual Set port mirroring, Create disable

set port mirroring

Mode

Switch command, read‐only.

Example

This example shows how to display port mirroring information. In this case, ge.1.4 is configured as a source port and ge.1.11 is a target and mirroring has been enabled between these ports:

C3(su)->show port mirroring

Port Mirroring

==============

Source Port = ge.1.4 Target Port = ge.1.11 Frames Mirrored = Rx and Tx Port Mirroring status enabled.

set port mirroring

Use this command to create a new mirroring relationship or to enable or disable an existing mirroring relationship between two ports.

Notes: When a port mirror is created, the mirror destination port is removed from VLAN 1’s egress list after a reboot.

"MAC addresses will be learned for packets tagged with the mirror VLAN ID. This will prevent the ability to snoop traffic across multiple hops.

Syntax

set port mirroring {create disable enable} source destination}

Parameters

create disable	Creates, disables or enables mirroring settings on the specified ports. By
enable	default, port mirrors are enabled automatically when created.
source	Specifies the source port designation. This is the port on which the traffic
	will be monitored. For a detailed description of possible port‐string values,
	refer to “Port String Syntax Used in the CLI” on page 7‐1.
destination	Specifies the target port designation. This is the port that will duplicate or
	“mirror” all the traffic on the monitored port. Only one destination port
	can be configured per stack, if applicable.
	For a detailed description of possible port‐string values, refer to “Port
	String Syntax Used in the CLI” on page 7‐1.

Defaults

Port mirrors are automatically enabled when created on this platform.

Mode

Switch command, read‐write.

Usage

Note that LAG ports and their underlying physical ports, as described in “Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP)” on page 7‐42, cannot be mirrored.
