Hi,

I want to mirror port0’s data to port1 within the hardware, but not through kernel layer or App layer, like the following picture.

Does Mellanox ConnectX-5 can support this feature ?

If it’s yes, how can I configure the feature ?

Thank you.

Hi Saber,

Port Mirroring is Switch feature and can be configured from the switch side
