    Posted Feb 16, 2024 09:58 AM

    Hi ,
    I'm lost regarding the commands that need to be entered into the switches. I want to monitor two IP phones and send the streams to a destination PC. See the diagram. Regarding local mirroring there is no problem, it's easy.
    But in this current situation with 3 switches I am completely lost.
    Looking at the diagram, can you help me and give me the commands to do on each switch.
    Thank you in advance for your support.

    Remote Port Mirror may be a solution to what you want to achieve.

    to piggyback on the remote port mirror, there's a lot of material to go through, but to simplify:

    configure your destination switch first: 

    Host# mirror endpoint ip <source switch mgmt IP> <port> <destination switch ip> port <port #>

    on the 192.168.2.2 switch (top right)

    # mirror endpoint ip 192.168.2.10 9999 192.168.2.2 port 1

    then configure your source switch (your udp port #'s have to match):

     Host# mirror 1 name <name> remote ip <source switch mgmt IP> <port> <destination switch ip>

    so on 192.168.2.10

    host # mirror 1 name MonitorPhones remote ip 192.168.2.10 9999 192.168.2.2

    This sets up the mirror session between the two switches. Then you actually need to mirror the ports themselves

    At interface to be mirrored

    Host (eth-#)# monitor all both mirror <number or name>

    so do the following:

    host # interface 6,23

    host  interface [6,23] # monitor all both mirror 1

    This does  a port monitor on those two interfaces and sends them to mirror session "1", which you configured on the source switch already.
