Command Syntax and Usage

add <mirrored port (port to mirror from)> <direction (in, out, or both)>

Adds the port to be mirrored. This command also allows you to enter the direction of the traffic. It is necessary to specify the direction because:

If the source port of the frame matches the mirrored port and the mirrored direction is ingress or both (ingress and egress), the frame is sent to the mirrored port.

If the destination port of the frame matches the mirrored port and the mirrored direction is egress or both, the frame is sent to the monitoring port.

rem <mirrored port (port to mirror from)>

Removes the mirrored port.

delete

Deletes this monitor port.

cur

Displays the current settings of the monitoring port.
