Monitoring and Analyzing Switch Operation
Traffic Mirroring
Using the Menu or Web Interface To Configure Local
Mirroring
Menu and Web Interface Limits
The Menu and Web interfaces can be used to quickly configure or reconfigure
local mirroring on session 1, and allow one of the following two mirroring
source options:
■ any combination of source port(s), trunk(s), and/or a mesh
■ one static, source VLAN interface
The Menu and Web interfaces also have these limits:
■ Configure and display only session 1 and only as a local mirroring session
for traffic in both directions on the specified interface. (Selecting inbound-
only or outbound-only is not an option.)
■ If session 1 has been configured in the CLI for local mirroring for inbound-
only or outbound-only traffic on one or more interfaces, then using the
Menu or Web interface to change the session 1 configuration automati-
cally reconfigures the session to monitor both inbound and outbound
traffic on the designated interface(s).
■ If session 1 has been configured in the CLI with an ACL/classifier-based
mirroring policy or as a remote mirroring session, then the Menu and Web
interfaces are not available for changing the session 1 configuration.
■ The CLI (and SNMP) can be used to override any Menu or Web interface
configuration of session 1.
