Hi Patrick,

As you say, on the C3, you can only mirror a maximum of 8 ports.

>From C3's manual:
Mirroring Features
The SecureStack C3 device supports the following mirroring features:
* Mirroring can be configured in a many�\to�\one configuration so that one 
target (destination)
port can monitor traffic on up to 8 source ports. Only one mirror destination 
port can be
configured per stack, if applicable.
* Both transmit and receive traffic will be mirrored.
* A destination port will only act as a mirroring port when the session is 
operationally active.
* When a port mirror is created, the mirror destination port is removed from 
the egress list of
VLAN 1 after a reboot.
* MAC addresses will be learned for packets tagged with the mirror VLAN ID. 
This will
prevent the ability to snoop traffic across multiple hops. 


Regards

Hi all

Is it possible to mirror a whole VLAN (say 24 ports of a 48 port switch) to a 
single port?

It seems that the C3 can only mirror a maximum of 8 ports to 1 port, but I hope 
someone can prove me wrong.

Thanks
Patrick
