3com 5500-ei pwr Reference Guide

z 

It is recommended that you use a destination port for port mirroring purpose only. Do 

not use a destination port to transmit other service packets.  

Related commands: display mirroring-group. 

 

When you configure mirroring destination port on an Ethernet port of a Switch 5500-EI, if 

mirroring group 1 does not exist, the switch will automatically create local mirroring group 

1 and add the destination port to the group; if mirroring group 1 already exists, but is not a 

local mirroring group, your configuration of the destination port will fail.

Use the remote-probe  vlan  enable  command to configure the current VLAN as the 

remote-probe VLAN.

You cannot configure a default VLAN, a management VLAN, or a dynamic VLAN as the 

remote-probe VLAN.

A remote-probe VLAN cannot be removed directly. To do that, you need to run the 

undo remote-probe vlan enable command in VLAN view first.
