As simple FastIron mirroring setup looks like this:

In global config:

"mirror ethernet 4"

Where "ethernet 4" is the interface that Ntop would listen on.

Then in interface config for the interface you want to mirror to ntop (e.g
Ethernet 1):

"interface ethernet 1"
        "monitor ethernet 4 both"

Where "ethernet 4" points back to the monitor interface you set up in global
config and "both" is the direction: both, outbound or inbound.

I believe some FastIrons support multiple mirror ports and others do not. My
FES9604s do not but I believe the chassis switches do.

Hope that helps,

Chris

Subject: RE: [Ntop] Question (probably dumb) from a new user

My switches are brand new foundry Edge irons and the core is a new Fast
iron, so im pretty sure they support port mirroring, but Im gonna have to
figure out how to make it happen.  I'm a new network admin, (I was trained
as a biology teacher), and Infrastructure is one of my weak points

We have been a hub network with just an unmanaged switch at the core, so
this is a huge upgrade for us
