portCopyDirection

Module: SMON-MIB

OID (symbolic): SMON-MIB::portCopyDirection

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.22.1.3.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-create

Description: This object affects the way traffic is copied from a switch source port, for the indicated port copy operation.

If this object has the value 'copyRxOnly(1)', then only traffic received on the indicated source port will be copied to the indicated destination port.

If this object has the value 'copyTxOnly(2)', then only traffic transmitted out the indicated source port will be copied to the indicated destination port.

If this object has the value 'copyBoth(3)', then all traffic received or transmitted on the indicated source port will be copied to the indicated destination port.

The creation and deletion of instances of this object is controlled by the portCopyRowStatus object. Note that there is no guarantee that changes in the value of this object performed while the associated portCopyRowStatus object is equal to active will not cause traffic discontinuities in the packet stream.

What is portCopyDirection?

Controls which direction of traffic on the source port is mirrored to the destination port for this port-copy (SPAN-like) entry: received traffic only, transmitted traffic only, or both (the default); changing this on an already-active entry isn't guaranteed to be glitch-free.
