    tdunlap47,

     

    Welcome to the community! 

     

    Just to confirm the configuration done on the switch, on the System > Monitoring > Mirroring, the following are:

    • Destination port is 5
    • Source port is 1
    • Mirroring set to enabled

    If such are the following, have you also tried performing a reboot and/or a factory defaults?

    Another thing that you can try is to change the Ethernet cables and try a different workstation if possible.

     

    Please let us know how it goes.


    Regards,
