monitor session 1 mode
SFTOS Command Reference for the S2410, Version 2.4.1.0 113
monitor session 1 mode
This command sets the monitor session (port monitoring) mode to enabled. The probe and
monitored ports must be configured before port monitoring can be enabled. When enabled,
the probe port monitors all traffic received and transmitted on the physical monitored port. It
is not necessary to disable port monitoring before modifying the probe and monitored ports.
A session is operationally active if and only if both a destination port and at least one source
port is configured. If neither is true, the session is inactive.
A port configured as a destination port acts as a mirroring port when the session is
operationally active. If it is not, the port acts as a normal port and participates in all normal
operation with respect to transmitting traffic.
