B
and
C
) in your network. You are connected to port
10
of switch
C
but want to monitor traffic received or transmitted on port
4
of switch
A
. The copied
traffic is forwarded to remote port mirroring VLAN 100.
In Switch A:
1

Enter the remote port mirroring VLAN ID number (
100
in this example) and select a reflector port
(
Port 7
for example) through which copied traffic is forwarded to the specified VLAN. The Switch
will automatically create the remote port mirroring VLAN and configure the reflector and
intermediate ports as a member of the remote port mirroring VLAN.
5
