Command system-view mirroring-group group-id remote-destination Remarks N/A By default, no remote destination group exists on a device. Configuring the monitor port for a remote destination group You can configure the monitor port for a mirroring group in system view, or assign a port to a mirroring group as the monitor port in interface view. The two modes have the same results. When you configure the monitor port for a remote destination group, follow these restrictions and guidelines: • Do not enable the spanning tree feature on the monitor port. • When an aggregate interface is configured as the monitor port, do not configure its member ports as source ports. • Use a monitor port only for port mirroring to make sure that the data monitoring device receives and analyzes only the mirrored traffic rather than a mix of mirrored traffic and correctly forwarded traffic. • A mirroring group must contain only one monitor port.
