Command Usage

You can mirror traffic from any source port to a destination port for real-time analysis. You can then attach a logic analyzer or RMON probe to the destination port and study the traffic crossing the source port in a completely unobtrusive manner.

The destination port is set by specifying an Ethernet interface.

The source and destination port speeds should match, otherwise traffic may be dropped from the source port.

You can create only one port mirror session.

The source and destination ports have to be either both in the port range 1-12 or both in the port range 13-24.

Example

The following example configures the switch to mirror all packets from port 6 to port 11:

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/11

Console(config-if)#port monitor ethernet 1/6 both

Console(config-if)#
