4.3.16 Mirror Port Commands
This section describes how to mirror traffic from a source port to a target port.
4.3.16.1 port monitor
Use this command to configure a mirror session. Use the no form to clear a mirror
session.
It is only possible to monitor one port on the switch at a time.
Note – The integrated switches on the Sun Fire B1600 blade system chassis are each
composed of two switch chips linked together. It is only possible to mirror the traffic
on one port by using another port that is on the same switch chip. The ports NETP0,
NETP1, NETP4, NETP5, and SNP8 through SNP15 are on one switch chip. The ports
NETP2, NETP3, NETP6, NETP7, and SNP0 through SNP7 are on the other. (If you
look at the rear panel of the SSC, all the ports on the right are on one chip, and all
the ports on the left are on the other.)
