(ENETs 1 through 4 are shown as 1 through 4 on thescreen.) A port can be set to have one or more destination ports. Forexample, port 1 can be set as a source port with three destinations, ports 2,3, and 4. Traffic from port 1 is then automatically redirected to ports 2, 3,and 4. Port 1 can also serve as a destination port for other ports.The port redirect function is extremely useful for troubleshootingpurposes, as it allows traffic to be sent to a particular port(s) where, withthe use of an analyzer or RMON probe, all current traffic from the sourceport(s) can be examined.NOTEThe Port Redirect Function screen can only be used if theoperational mode of the device has been set to 802.1DSWITCHING. Refer to Section 5.7.9, Setting the OperationalMode, for instructions on configuring the device to operate inthis mode.NOTEAlthough all traffic from the source port (including, if desired,errored frames) is sent to the destination port, normal switchingis still performed for all frames on the source port.
