The configuration examples in this document were created and verified in a lab environment, and all the devices were started with the factory default configuration. When you are working on a live network, make sure you understand the potential impact of every command on your network.

This document assumes that you have basic knowledge of HP port mirroring and flow mirroring.

Example: Configuring local port mirroring

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 1, configure local port mirroring to monitor the Internet traffic and bidirectional traffic of the Marketing department and the Technical department.

Figure 1 Network diagram

Applicable hardware and software versions

The following matrix shows the hardware and software versions to which this configuration example is applicable:

Hardware	Software version
S6550X-HI switch series	Release 1116 and later
S6880 switch series	Release 1116 and later
S9820-8M switch	Release 1116 and later
S9855 switch series	Release 9126 and later
S9825 switch series	Release 9126 and later

Restrictions and guidelines

When you configure local port mirroring, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

· A local mirroring group takes effect only when you configure both source ports and the monitor port for the group. When you configure the monitor port, do not use a port of an existing mirroring group.

· Use a monitor port only for port mirroring, so the data monitoring device receives and analyzes only the mirrored traffic.

· For the correct operation of port mirroring, disable the spanning tree feature on the monitor port if it is a Layer 2 interface.

Status: Active

Mirroring port:

Monitor port: Twenty-FiveGigE3/0/3

2. Use Wireshark for packet analysis:

# Ping 56.56.56.6 from a Technical department host (10.1.1.2). (Details not shown.)

# Use Wireshark on the data monitoring device to capture the ping packets.

Figure 2 Ping packet analysis in Wireshark

The analysis shows that the data monitoring device can monitor the packets sent from the Technical department.

Analysis

To ensure correct forwarding of mirrored packets, assign the ports that connect intermediate devices to the source and destination devices to the remote probe VLAN.

The following matrix shows the hardware and software versions to which this configuration example is applicable:

Hardware	Software version

S9825 switch series	Not supported

Restrictions and guidelines

When you configure devices for remote port mirroring, configure them in the order of the destination device, the intermediate devices, and the source device.

When you configure the monitor port for the remote destination group on the destination device, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

· Do not use a port of an existing mirroring group.

· Use the monitor port only for port mirroring.

· For the correct operation of port mirroring, disable the spanning tree feature on the monitor port if it is a Layer 2 interface.

· For the monitor port to forward mirrored packets to the data monitoring device without VLAN tags, assign the monitor port to the remote probe VLAN as an access port.

When you configure the remote probe VLAN on the source and destination devices, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

· Use an existing static VLAN that is not in use.

· Use the remote probe VLAN for port mirroring exclusively.

· The remote mirroring groups on the source device and destination device must use the same remote probe VLAN. Use this VLAN only for the same remote mirroring group on the source device and destination device.

When you configure a remote source group on the source device, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

· Do not assign source ports of the remote source group to the remote probe VLAN.

· The port to be configured as a reflector port must be a port not in use. Do not connect a network cable to a reflector port.

· When a port is configured as a reflector port, all existing configurations of the port are cleared. You cannot configure other features on the reflector port.

· A mirroring group contains only one reflector port.

· You can configure a port as a reflector port only when the port is operating with the default duplex mode, speed, and MDI settings. You cannot change these settings for a reflector port.

Restrictions and guidelines

When you configure devices for remote port mirroring, configure them in the order of the destination device, the intermediate devices, and the source device.

When you configure the monitor port for the remote destination group on the destination device, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

· Do not use a port of an existing mirroring group.

· Use the monitor port only for port mirroring.

· For the correct operation of port mirroring, disable the spanning tree feature on the monitor port if it is a Layer 2 interface.

· For the monitor port to forward mirrored packets to the data monitoring device without VLAN tags, assign the monitor port to the remote probe VLAN as an access port.

When you configure the remote probe VLAN on the source and destination devices, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

· Use an existing static VLAN that is not in use.

· Use the remote probe VLAN for port mirroring exclusively.

When you configure a remote source group on the source device, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

· Do not assign source ports of the remote source group to the remote probe VLAN.

· To ensure the operation of mirroring, do not enable any of the following features on the egress port:

¡ Spanning tree.

¡ Static ARP.

¡ MAC address learning.

· A port of an existing mirroring group cannot be configured as an egress port.

· A mirroring group contains only one egress port.

· To implement Layer 2 remote mirroring when the source ports are Layer 3 interfaces, you must use the egress port method.

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 7, configure Layer 3 remote port mirroring to monitor the technical department's traffic accessing the Internet on the data monitoring device.

Analysis

To configure Layer 3 remote port mirroring, first create a mirroring group, and then specify the source ports and monitor port for the mirroring group. To meet the network requirements, specify encapsulation parameters for mirrored packets when specifying the monitor port for the mirroring group.

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 8, configure local flow mirroring to mirror the following traffic:

· HTTP traffic from the Technical department.

· Packets that the Marketing department hosts receive from the public server cluster during non-working hours from 18:00 to 08:30 (the next day) on working days.

Example: Configuring flow mirroring in a flexible way

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 12, configure flow mirroring to monitor the network traffic by using the data monitoring devices as follows:

· On the data monitoring device connected to Device A:

¡ Monitor the traffic from public servers.

¡ Monitor the traffic from the file server only in the non-working hours (18:00 to 8:30 of the next day) on working days.

¡ Monitor the traffic from the Marketing department to the Internet, except the traffic from the Marketing department manager office to the Internet.

· On the data monitoring device connected to Device B:

¡ Monitor the traffic from the Technical department hosts and the server for external access.

¡ Monitor the outgoing traffic from the server in non-working hours (18:00 to 8:30 of the next day) on working days.

Figure 12 Network diagram

Analysis

To filter data from a specific source, use one of the following methods:

· Apply a QoS policy of denying traffic to the outgoing interface of the mirrored data. The data from the specified source is not received by the data monitoring device.

· Configure a class-behavior association to permit the data from the specified source, and then issue the class-behavior association before the class-behavior association for mirroring. Data from the specified source is not mirrored.

· Use the packet-filter command on the outgoing interface of the mirrored data. The data from the specified source is not received by the data monitoring device.

[DeviceB] display mirroring-group 1

Mirroring group 1:

Type: Local

Status: Active

Mirroring port:

Twenty-FiveGigE3/0/1 Inbound

Monitor port: Twenty-FiveGigE3/0/2

2. Use Wireshark for packet analysis:

# Use a Marketing department host (12.1.1.2) and the manager's host (12.1.1.100) to access the IP address 57.57.57.7 and port 80 through Telnet. (Details not shown.)

# Use Wireshark on the data monitoring device connected to Device A to capture the packets.

Figure 13 HTTP traffic analysis in Wireshark

The analysis shows that the data monitoring device monitors the traffic only from the Marketing department host (12.1.1.2). The traffic from the manager office is not monitored.
