PORT REDIRECT CONFIGURATION SCREEN
When to Use
To redirect frames in the switch device from one source port to one or more destination ports or
from one or more source ports to one destination port. Frames received on the source port can be
redirected and transmitted in the frame format in which they are received (normal) or they can be
redirected with a VLAN Tag (TAGGED) or without a VLAN Tag (UNTAGGED). Also, any
errored frames received can be either dropped or forwarded to the destination port.
from one or more source ports to one destination port. Frames received on the source port can be
redirected and transmitted in the frame format in which they are received (normal) or they can be
redirected with a VLAN Tag (TAGGED) or without a VLAN Tag (UNTAGGED). Also, any
errored frames received can be either dropped or forwarded to the destination port.
For example, port 1 can be set as the source port with ports 2 and 5 as the destination ports. Frames
from port 1 are then automatically redirected to ports 2 and 5 according to the configured frame
format, and frames with errors can be either forwarded or dropped according to the screen settings.

The port redirect function is useful for troubleshooting purposes. It allows all inbound and
outbound traffic from one or more source ports to be sent to a destination port where all current
traffic from the source ports can be examined using analyzers, RMON probes, or IDS sensors.

NOTE: The switch device supports a maximum of 128 redirect entries configured
including VLAN redirect, port redirect and, if the module has an optional ATM interface
installed, any ATM Permanent Virtual Circuits (PVCs) redirect entries.

NOTE: Although all traffic from the source port (including, if desired, errored frames) is
sent to the destination port, normal switching is still performed for all frames on the
source port.
