Remote Mirroring With STP

For the same topology shown in Remote Mirroring with EAPS, you can use STP instead of using EAPS. A sample configuration follows.

Switch A Configuration

enable mirror to port-list 8:2,1:48 loopback-port 8:1 remote-tag 1000
configure mirror add port 8:35
create vlan v1
configure vlan v1 tag 1001
configure vlan v1 add ports 8:2,1:48 tag
create stp stp1
configure stp1 mode dot1w
configure stp1 add v1 ports all
configure stp1 tag 1001
configure stp1 add vlan internalMirrorLoopback ports 8:2,1:48
enable stp1
enable stpd

Switch B Configuration

create vlan remote_vlan
configure vlan remote_vlan tag 1000 remote-mirroring
configure vlan remote_vlan add ports 19,9 tag
create vlan v1
configure vlan v1 tag 1001
configure vlan v1 add ports 19,9 tag
create stp stp1
configure stp1 mode dot1w
configure stp1 add v1 ports all
configure stp1 tag 1001
configure stp1 add vlan remote_vlan ports all
enable stp1
enable stpd

Switch C Configuration

create vlan remote_vlan
configure vlan remote_vlan tag 1000 remote-mirroring
configure vlan remote_vlan add ports 31,45 tag
configure vlan remote_vlan add ports 1
create vlan v1
configure vlan v1 tag 1001
configure vlan v1 add ports 31,45 tag
create stp stp1
configure stp1 mode dot1w
configure stp1 add v1 ports all
configure stp1 tag 1001
configure stp1 add vlan remote_vlan ports 31,45
enable stp1
enable stpd
