tool-mirror
Required Command-Line Mode = Configure
Use the tool-mirror command to configure a pass-all between two tool ports or a tool port and a tool GigaStream on the same node irrespective of the maps already in place for the ports. Refer to the “Working with Map-Passalls and Port Mirroring” section in the GigaVUE Fabric Management Guide for a discussion of use cases for tool-mirrors.
Keep in mind the following rules and notes when you configure tool-mirrors:
- You can only use tool-mirror connections between tool ports/GigaStream on the same node. Cross-node tool-mirror connections are not supported.
- Tool-mirrors are not supported on tool ports with copper SFPs installed or on 100Gb ports with CFP2 transceivers.
- In a cluster, tool-mirror is supported only on the leader leader in clustering node relationship (formerly master).
The tool-mirror command has the following syntax:
tool-mirror <alias <alias>>
from <port-id | port-alias | port-list | inline-network-alias | inline-network-group-alias>
to <port-id | port-alias | port-list | gigastream-alias | gigastream-alias-list | inline-tool-alias |
inline-tool-group-alias | inline-serial-alias | bypass> [comment <comment>]
