Configure the port as the
monitor port for the specified
mirroring group.

By default, a port does not act as
the monitor port for any local
mirroring group.
Configure local port mirroring with multiple monitor ports
Typically, you can configure only one monitor port for a local mirroring group. To configure local port
mirroring to support multiple monitor ports, use a remote probe VLAN.
In Layer 2 remote port mirroring, mirrored packets are broadcast within remote probe VLANs.
To broadcast mirrored packets to multiple local monitor ports through a remote probe VLAN, perform the
following tasks:
1.
Create a remote source group on the local device.
2.
Specify the reflector port for this mirroring group.
3.
Configure the remote probe VLAN for this mirroring group.
4.
Assign the local monitor ports to the remote probe VLAN.
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
When you configure local port mirroring to support multiple monitor ports, follow these restrictions and
guidelines:
•
Configure an unused port on the device as the reflector port. Do not connect a network cable to the
reflector port.
•
When a port is configured as a reflector port, the port restores to the factory default settings. Do not
configure other features on the reflector port.
•
A mirroring group can contain multiple source ports.
•
For correct operation of port mirroring, do not assign a source port to the remote probe VLAN.
•
If you have configured the reflector port for a remote source group, do not configure the egress port
for it.
•
A VLAN can act as the remote probe VLAN for only one remote source group. HP recommends that
you use the remote probe VLAN for port mirroring exclusively. Do not create a VLAN interface or
perform other tasks on the VLAN.
