Using the BayStack 450 10/100/1000 Series Switch

In the configuration example shown in Figure 1-50, the designated monitor port (port 23) can be set to monitor traffic in any of the following modes:

•Monitor all traffic received by port X.

•Monitor all traffic transmitted by port X.

•Monitor all traffic received and transmitted by port X.

•Monitor all traffic received by port X or transmitted by port Y.

•Monitor all traffic received by port X (destined to port Y) and then transmitted by port Y.

•Monitor all traffic received/transmitted by port X and received/transmitted by port Y (conversations between port X and port Y).

•As shown in the Port Mirroring Configuration screen example ( Figure 1-51), port 23 is designated as the Monitor Port for ports 24 and 25 in switch S1.

Note: The Unit value (in the Unit/Port field) is not configurable when the switch is operating standalone. For detailed information about the MultiLink Trunk Configuration screen fields, see “MultiLink Trunk Configuration” on page 3-37.

The Monitoring Mode field [ - > Port X or Port Y - > ] indicates that all traffic received by port X or all traffic transmitted by port Y is currently being monitored by the StackProbe attached to Monitor Port 23.

The screen data displayed at the bottom of the screen shows the currently active port mirroring configuration.
