How to specify a VLAN to monitor in M4100-26-POE managed switch ?

Hello,

Port mirroring, which is also known as port monitoring, selects network traffic that you can analyze with a network analyzer, such as a SwitchProbe device or other Remote Monitoring (RMON) probe.

 

This command configures a probe port and a monitored port for monitor session (port monitoring). Use the source interface <unit/slot/port> parameter to specify the interface to monitor. Use rx to monitor only ingress packets, or use tx to monitor only egress packets. If you do not specify an {rx | tx} option, the destination port monitors both ingress and egress packets. Use the destination interface <unit/slot/port> to specify the interface to receive the monitored traffic. 


Format : 
monitor session <session-id> {source interface <unit/slot/port> [{rx | tx}] | destination interface <unit/slot/port> | mode}

 

Mode : 

Global Config

 

The most important point is, how can I specify the some VLAN to monitor in M4100-26-POE managed switch ? 

 

I want to monitor  a VLAN traffic.

 

I hope for help.

Thank You

    Hi abushqer,

     

    Welcome to our community!

     

    In order for you to specifically monitor a VLAN, you may need to use SNMP.
