Parameter Description
Enable Port Mirror Enables or disables the mirror function.
TX Mirrored Port The port whose transmitted traffic will be mirrored.
TX Monitored Port The port that will duplicate the transmitted traffic appearing on the
mirrored port.
RX Mirrored Port The port whose received traffic will be mirrored.
RX Monitored Port The port that will duplicate the received traffic appearing on the
mirrored port.
Note:
You can mirror multiple ports to a single port to view traffic such as that crossing a
port trunk. However, note that some packets may be dropped for moderate to
heavy loading.
3.6.2.3.Configuring Port Trunks Ports can be combined into an aggregate link to increase the bandwidth of a network
connection or ensure fault recovery. You can configure trunks between any two switches.
Ports 1-24 on this switch can be grouped into a trunk consisting of two, four or eight
ports, creating an aggregate bandwidth up to 400, 800 or 1600 Mbps when operating at
full duplex. Ports 25-26 (extender module ports) can be trunked together creating an
aggregate bandwidth up to 2 Gps. The ports that can be assigned to the same trunk are
listed on next page. Beyond balancing the load across each port in the trunk, the
additional ports provide redundancy by taking over the load if another port in the trunk
should fail. However, before making any physical connections between devices, use the
Trunk Configuration menu to specify the trunk on the devices at both ends. When using
