Have we achieved our goal of sending all the TCP traffic to Monitor Port 2? Not quite. What happens when an TCP packet arrives from 192.186.10.0? It matches the filter at CAM address 1, so it is copied to Monitor Port 1. But that is all that happens; it does not go to Monitor Port 2. The flow is correctly shown in the following diagram.

Network Port 5

Figure 36: Correct flow diagram for two interacting filters

To achieve the desired result of sending all TCP traffic to Monitor Port 2, clear the existing filters (filter discard command) and create three new filters by entering:

filter add in_ports=n1.5 ip_src=192.186.10.0 ip_proto=6 action=redir redir_ports=m.1,m.2 filter add in_ports=n1.5 ip_src=192.186.10.0 action=redir redir_ports=m.1

filter add in_ports=n1.5 ip_proto=6 action=redir redir_ports=m.2 filter commit

The flow diagram now looks as follows.

Figure 37: Correct way to send all TCP traffic to Monitor Port 2

Now, packets that match both the IP address and protocol conditions are copied to both monitor ports, while packets that match only one of the conditions are directed to the desired monitor port.
