Port Mirroring Managed Switch CLI Manual, Release 8.0 Port mirroring, which is also known as port monitoring, selects network traffic that you can analyze with a network analyzer, such as a SwitchProbe device or other Remote Monitoring (RMON) probe. monitor session This command configures a probe port and a monitored port for monitor session (port monitoring). Use the source interface parameter to specify the interface to monitor. Use rx to monitor only ingress packets, or use tx to monitor only egress packets. If you do not specify an {rx | tx} option, the destination port monitors both ingress and egress packets. Use the destination interface to specify the interface to receive the monitored traffic. Use the mode parameter to enabled the administrative mode of the session. If enabled, the probe port monitors all the traffic received and transmitted on the physical monitored port. Format Mode monitor session {source interface [{rx | tx}] | destination interface | mode} Global Config no monitor session Use this command without optional parameters to remove the monitor session (port monitoring) designation from the source probe port, the destination monitored port and all VLANs. Once the port is removed from the VLAN, you must manually add the port to any desired VLANs. Use the source interface parameter or destination interface to remove the specified interface from the port monitoring session. Use the mode parameter to disable the administrative mode of the session . Note: Since the current version of 7000 series software only supports one session, if you do not supply optional parameters, the behavior of this command is similar to the behavior of the no monitor command.
