For high availability, each instance of a mirror to a remote IP address can have up to four remote IP addresses configured with a unique priority. For each mirror instance, the remote IP address with the highest priority value that is deemed “up” is used as the destination IP address for GRE-tunneled mirrored traffic. All other remote IP addresses deemed “up” for that mirror instance are on standby, ready to be used in the event the preferred remote IP address goes “down”. Each remote IP address is monitored independently with ping health check, route tracking, and gateway ARP tracking.

All previous limitations for mirror to remote IP addresses still apply to this redundancy feature.
configure mirror {mirror_name to remote-ip delete [all | remote_ip_address {{vr} vr_name}]
Changes are underlined.
create mirror mirror_name {to [port port | port-list port_list loopback-port port] { remote-tag rtag } | remote-ip remote_ip_address {{vr vr_name} {from [ source_ip_address | auto-source-ip]} {ping-check [on | off]} priority priority_value ]} {description mirror-desc}
enable mirror {mirror_name} to remote-ip remote_ip_address {{vr} vr_name} {priority priority_value} {from [source_ip_address | auto-source-ip]} {ping-check [on | off]}]
configure mirror mirror_name {to [port port | port-list port_list | loopback port port | remote-ip {add}remote_ip_address {{vr vr_name} {from [ source_ip_address | auto-source-ip]} {ping-check [on | off ]}] {remote-tag rtag | port none} {priority priority_value}
The following show command now shows redundant remote IP address information:
show mirror [mirror_name | control_index | mirror_name_li] |[all | enabled]
