Mirroring ports from one switch to another one
Hi! I recently bought 2 Netgear switches to my small company both are GS724TPS that are connected with trunked connection on both sides of the building. The problem is I need to mirror one port from ...
Hi chavez2,
Welcome to the community! :)
It think its not possible to configure mirror ports from switch A to switch B or vice versa wherein both switches are connected via a trunk connection. Since the GS724TPS is capable of stacking, I believe it would be best to set the 2 GS724TPS as one stack. In this way, you can configure Port Mirroring because if 2 or more switches are configured in a stack, it resembles as one switch.

It's a shame it is not possible because the switches are located 50m apart from each other in more or less straight line. It would be easier to route another CAT cable than a HDMI one to stack them. I got them used fairly cheap so I knew there gonna be some issues I wouldn't be able to overcome but this one is a bummer. Thank's anyway for the reply. I'm already thinking about rearranging the network.
Could You also please tell me what is the cost of having the business web interface for managing the wireless network? With the switches I also bought few WNDAP350 and the interface to manage them is great and I would like to keep it that way. Also what will happen after the 90 days trail period? Will the network work as configured before it ended?
I believe you are referring to the Business Central 2.0 Wireless Manager in which the WNDAP350 is supported. After the 90-day trial period expires, your user account will be locked out. However, the access point is still active but it cannot be configured or managed via the cloud. In order to regain access to your user account, you will need to purchase any of 6 available subscription licensing options.
