Configuring Remote Port Mirroring on a source switch
The below configuration example shows that the source is a source port and the destination is the reserved VLAN (for example, remote-
vlan 10).
DellEMC(conf)# interface tengigabitethernet 1/2/1
DellEMC(conf-if-gi-1/2)# switchport
DellEMC(conf-if-gi-1/2)# no shutdown
DellEMC(conf-if-gi-1/2)# exit
DellEMC(conf)#interface vlan 10
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-10)#mode remote-port-mirroring
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-10)#tagged tengigabitethernet 1/2/1
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-10)#exit
DellEMC(conf)#
DellEMC(conf)#monitor session 1 type rpm
DellEMC(conf-mon-sess-1)#source tengigabitethernet 1/1/1 destination remote-vlan 10 dir rx
DellEMC(conf-mon-sess-1)#no disable
DellEMC(conf-mon-sess-1)#exit
Configuring Remote Port Mirroring on an intermediate switch
Following is a sample configuration of RPM on an intermediate switch.
DellEMC(conf)#interface vlan 10
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-10)#mode remote-port-mirroring
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-10)#tagged tengigabitethernet 1/4/1
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-10)#tagged tengigabitethernet 1/5/1
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-10)#exit
Configuring Remote Port Mirroring on a destination switch
Following is a sample configuration of RPM on an a destination switch.
DellEMC(conf)#interface tengigabitethernet 1/7/1
DellEMC(conf-if-gi-1/9)#switchport
DellEMC(conf-if-gi-1/9)#no shutdown
DellEMC(conf-if-gi-1/9)#exit
DellEMC(conf)#interface vlan 10
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-10)#mode remote-port-mirroring
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-10)#tagged tengigabitethernet 1/7/1
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-10)#exit
DellEMC(conf)#monitor session 1 type rpm
DellEMC(conf-mon-sess-1)#source remote-vlan 10 destination tengigabitethernet 1/8/1
DellEMC(conf-mon-sess-1)#exit
Configuration Example of Remote Port Mirroring with flow-based
enabled
This example provides a sample configuration of remote port mirroring with the flow based monitoring enabled.
Configuring Remote Port Mirroring on source switch
The below configuration example shows that the source is a source VLAN and the destination is the reserved VLAN (for example, remote-
vlan 20) with the flow based monitoring enabled.
DellEMC(conf)#interface vlan 100
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-100)#tagged tengigabitethernet 1/1/1
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-100)#exit
DellEMC(conf)#interface vlan 20
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-20)#mode remote-port-mirroring
