Monitoring and Analyzing Switch Operation Traffic Mirroring Mirroring Configuration Examples Local Mirroring Using Traffic-Direction Criteria Example of Local Mirroring Configuration. An administrator wants to mirror the inbound traffic from workstation "X" on port A5 and workstation "Y" on port B17 to a traffic analyzer connected to port C24. In this case, the administrator chooses "1" as the session number. (Any unused session number from 1 to 4 is valid.) Since the switch provides both the source and destination for the traffic to monitor, local mirroring can be configured. In this case, the command sequence is: 1. Configure the local mirroring session. 2. Assign a mirroring source to the session. X A5 Switch Traffic C24 Analyzer B17 Y Figure B-24.
