	Configuring the Monitor Port. This command assigns or removes a mon­
	itoring port, and must be executed from the global configuration level. Remov­
	ing the monitor port disables port monitoring and resets the monitoring
	parameters to their factory-default settings.
	Syntax: [no] mirror-port [< port-num>]
	For example, to assign port A6 as the monitoring port:
	HPswitch(config)# mirror-port a6
	To turn off monitoring:
	HPswitch(config)# no mirror-port
	Selecting or Removing Monitoring Source Interfaces. After you con-
	figure a monitor port you can use either the global configuration level or the
	interface context level to select ports, static trunks, meshed ports, or VLANs
	as monitoring sources. You can also use either level to remove monitoring
	sources.
N o t e	Individual ports, static trunks, and meshing can all be monitored at the same
	time. However, if you configure the switch to monitor a VLAN, all other
	interfaces are removed from monitoring. Also, you can configure only one
	VLAN at a time for monitoring.
	Syntax: [no] interface [ ethernet ] < monitor-list vlan < vlan-id>> monitor
	where: < monitor-list> includes port numbers, static trunk names, and
	meshing, such as a4, c7, b5-b8,trk1, and mesh.
