3-3. Mirror 
 
The Mirror function of the GSM series of switches is used to capture data from a particular port 
on the switch. Any port on the switch can be selected as the monitoring port; this port will be used 
to capture data from another port on the switch using third party data capturing software. Data 
can be captured from more than one port on the switch simultaneously therefore you can have 
one monitoring port and several other ports being monitored by the one port.
