Port mirroring and monitoring configuration

To configure port monitoring, first specify the mirror port, then enable monitoring on the monitored port.

The mirror port is the port to which the monitored traffic is copied. Attach your protocol analyzer to the mirror port. The monitored port is the port with the traffic you want to monitor.

The following table lists the number of mirror and monitor ports supported on the Ruckus devices.
