If you want to look into packets sent or received by a router, and there is no possible to
display them by command, the simplest and fastest way is to use mirroring. Unfortunately, in
case of AR routers, you have to go on-site to connect packets analyser (for example
Wireshark). Comparing to NE routers, AR routers do not support remote mirroring.
port mirroring
Port mirroring is to copy all packets from mirroring port to another port, which is called
monitor port. Monitor port is that where a monitoring device is connected to. AR routers
support local port mirroring for inbound and outbound direction.
traffic mirroring
Traffic mirroring is to copy specified packets, by QoS policy, to a specific destination and
send them to an interface for analysis. Traffic mirroring is supported on AR29 and AR49
routers.
Lets assume that we have a host, with IP 10.255.1.10, connected to interface ethernet 1/2 of
AR29 router. What we want to do is to monitor all packets being received from this host. As
monitor port we will use interface ethernet 1/3.
Bind traffic classifier with traffic behavior to create qos policy and apply this policy to
ethernet 1/2 as inbound:
