Follow these steps to configure remote port mirroring on the destination switch: 

Enter system view 

system-view 

— 

Create a VLAN and enter VLAN 
view 

vlan vlan-id 

vlan-id is the ID of the 
remote-probe VLAN.  

Configure the current VLAN as 
a remote-probe VLAN 

remote-probe vlan enable 

Required 

Return to system view 

— 

Enter the view of the Ethernet 
port connecting to the source 
switch or an intermediate 
switch 

interface interface-type 
interface-number 

— 

Configure the current port as 
trunk port 

Required 

By default, the port type is 
Access. 

Configure trunk port to permit 
packets from the remote-probe 
VLAN  

port trunk permit vlan 
remote-probe-vlan-id 

Required 

Return to system view 

— 

Create a remote destination 
mirroring group 

mirroring-group group-id 
remote-destination 

Required 

Configure the destination port 
for the remote destination 
mirroring group 

mirroring-group group-id 
monitor-port monitor-port 

Required 

Configure the remote-probe 
VLAN for the remote 
destination mirroring group  

mirroring-group group-id 
remote-probe vlan 
remote-probe-vlan-id 

Required 

 

When configuring a destination switch, note that: 

z 

The destination port of remote port mirroring cannot be a member port of an existing mirroring 

group, a member port of an aggregation group, or a port enabled with LACP or STP. 

z 

Only an existing static VLAN can be configured as the remote-probe VLAN. To remove a 

remote-probe VLAN, you need to restore it to a normal VLAN first. A remote port mirroring group 

gets invalid if the corresponding remote port mirroring VLAN is removed. 

 

z 

The MAC address specified for MAC-based mirroring must be a static MAC address existing in the 

MAC address table. 

z 

You can configure MAC-based mirroring for a remote source mirroring group to implement the 

MAC-based remote mirroring function.
