Configuration:
- 2 ERS 8600 core switches with 8630GBR modules (30 port 1000SFP GBIC) in SMLT configuration running image version 4.0.4.
- About 40 Baystack switches/stacks connected (1000SX) MLT of 2 ports on Baystack to SMLT on core.
- About 100 servers connected (1000SX) teaming with load balancing on servers, SMLT on core.
8 probes connected to each core switch.

I need to mirror a lot of server traffic and access switch traffic to the probes, meaning some servers to one probe, other servers to an other probe and so on, the same for the access switches.

Due to limitations (mirror 1 port /lane meaning 1 port / 10ports can be port mirrored) port mirroring can’t be used.

Mirroring is also supported based on
- MAC addresses e.g. "Passport-8610:5# conf vlan 1 fdb-entry monitor 00:00:ab:cd:ef:00 status learned true".
- Or by using ACLs (filters) with action mirror.
The problem is I can't find how to specify the mirror ports.
Can someone help me out?

regards
