GS316EP: Port mirroring fails to capture traffic between two ports isolated in their own VLAN
Setup: I have two VLANs configured: VLAN 1 (default): most ports, including my normal LAN traffic VLAN 10: exactly two ports (Port 3 and Port 4), used for an isolated point-to-point link betwe...
For what it's worth, I also confirmed via port statistics that Port 3 has substantial live traffic flowing through it the entire time — so the switch is definitely seeing and forwarding the traffic normally, it's just not reaching the mirror destination.
Try reversing the VLAN - using that for the LAN network, and using the default VLAN 1 for ports 3,4. Then see if the mirroring behaves differently.
Thank you StephenB. I'll give this a try when I'm able to in the next few days and will report the results.
