Thanks Eriz , Hopchecn for your support.
My issue is resolved . issue was because my PC (where i used to capture the packet) dropps the vlan packets and netgear send mirrored packets with vlan tagged.
Now i used another PC where it can accpet vlan packets and able to capture mirrored tx and RX packets.
thanks again for your support
(suggestion : pls send plane packets with vlan tag removed else people may see issue with mirrored ports)

Hi njc
We would want to keep the VLAN tag intact due to troubleshooting reasons, in multiple VLAN setups. In any case, any PC should be able to capture VLAN packets anyway, you just need to ensure that your NIC (on the PC you are capturing with) is set to Promiscuous Mode. Wireshark should do that per default, but else just enable it in Wireshark: "Capture" > "Options"
Cheers
