Nope - that's a Ciscoism. The 3Com technology is a roving analysis port.
Similar, but very different in some ways.
Besides, it doesn't have to be... my config looks like this (in part)
+ 3C switch +
+------------+
|
| Vlan Trunk
+---+
|HUB|------------->NTOP (Tigger, Owl)
+---+
|
|
+-----------+
| 3C Switch |
You can configure ntop on the router (although I don't recommend that) or
with multiple NICs to listen on multiple ports.
