Please read this thread. This will not work since the switch does not support RSPAN.
RSPAN allows you to monitor traffic from source ports distributed over multiple switches, which means that you can centralize your network capture devices.

I'm trying to get the data from the dualcomm from floor 1 to floor 0.
As I said - no need to configure any mirror ports. Create a VLAN and configure accordingly so you have a virtual "cable" from the Tap to the Sniffer.

Thank you. I appreicate your reply.
