Re: Switch designed for mirroring tap ports

Hi Ameen,

Wouldn&#39;t it work to have a switch aggregating your monitor sessions just disable MAC learning?  Traffic from a 
single input interface would be replicated to all other ports on the vlan where learning is disabled.  
I&#39;ve used this with a 3750, and I haven&#39;t seen any trouble (other than that you don&#39;t want that switch 
in-line with anything else).
