Switch with port mirroring

Cisco Switch

Example below: Send a copy of traffic on fastethernet 0/1 to fastethernet 0/2. Traffic in both directions are mirrored.

SW1# configure terminal
SW1(config)# monitor session 1 source interface fastethernet0/1 
SW1(config)# monitor session 1 destination interface fastethernet 0/2

Remove mirror from session 1.

SW1# CONFIGURE TERMINAL
SW1(config)# no MONITOR SESSION 1

Zyxel switch

Copy traffic from port 1,4,5 and 6 to port 3 (Note both means mirror traffic in both directions)

Switch(config)# <input>mirror-port</input>
Switch(config)# <input>mirror-port 3</input>
Switch(config)# <input>interface port-channel 1,4-6</input>
Switch(config-interface)# <input>mirror</input>
Switch(config-interface)# <input>mirror dir both</input>

Remove mirror again

Switch(config)# <input>no mirror-port</input>
