Traffic Mirrors🔗

Traffic Mirror is a network monitoring tool within Verity that copies traffic from a source port to a destination port. Administrators then connect a PC equipped with Wireshark or other monitoring device to the destination port to analyze the copied traffic.

The Device -> Traffic Mirrors window provides a Report of all Traffic Mirrors.

Creating a Traffic Mirror🔗

In Topology -> Newtwork View double-click the Traffic Mirrors tile on the switch (). This opens the Traffic Mirror window.

To add a new Traffic Mirror, click the Add row to this Switchpoint button () followed by entering the Source and Destination switch ports, selecting ingress and/or egress traffic, then enable row(s).

Port Traffic Mirroring Indicators🔗

These indicators tell users if a port is used in a traffic mirroring configuration.

Hovering over the indicator provides more information.
