port mirroring

It is possible to copy (or mirror) all frames that are received by and transmitted to a port designated by the Mirrorport register to the port designated by the Uplinkport register. This feature is enabled if the mirr bit in Syscontrol is set to 1, and disabled if it is 0.

If Mirrorport selects a port that is a member of a trunk, only that single specific port is mirrored. Frame traffic on the other trunk port(s) is not mirrored. The Uplinkport register should not select a port within a trunk (undesired behavior can occur if this is done).

copy to uplink

If destination address is a unicast and the cuplnk bit of its address record is set to 1 (via a DIO add), when a frame specifies that address as the destination, a copy of the frame also is sent to the port specified in the Uplinkport register. The Uplinkport register should not be set to select a port within a trunk (undesired behavior can occur if this is done).
