(remote port mirroring as described in “Configuring Remote Port Mirroring” on
page 128).
Monitor port speed should match or exceed source port speed, otherwise
traffic may be dropped from the monitor port.
When mirroring VLAN traffic (see Configuring VLAN Mirroring” on page 198) or
packets based on a source MAC address (see Configuring MAC Address
Mirroring” on page 210), the target port cannot be set to the same target ports
as that used for port mirroring by this command.
When traffic matches the rules for both port mirroring, and for mirroring of
VLAN traffic or packets based on a MAC address, the matching packets will not
be sent to target port specified for port mirroring.
The destination port cannot be a trunk or trunk member port.
Note that Spanning Tree BPDU packets are not mirrored to the target port.
