Syntax Description
| mirror | Specifies configuring mirrors. |
| to | Selects mirroring to another location. |
| remote-ip | Sends mirrored packets to specified destination IP address using L2 GRE encapsulation. |
| protocol-type | Selects GRE protocol type in the header of mirrored packets to all remote IP addresses. |
| erspan-v1 | Specifies GRE protocol type 0x88BE, Encapsulated Remote Switched Port Analyzer version 1, also known as ERSPAN type II (default). |
| trans-ether-bridging | Specifies GRE protocol type 0x6558, Trans Ether Bridging. |
| user-defined | Specifies GRE protocol type specified in hexadecimal (for example, 0x6558). |

Usage Guidelines
The configured value is global, and the new value is applied immediately in hardware for all active mirrors to remote IP addresses.
To view the current setting, use the show mirror [mirror_name | control_index | mirror_name_li] | [all | enabled] command.
Example
The following example sets the type as trans-ether-bridging:
# configure mirror to remote-ip protocol-type trans-ether-bridging
