You usually find this capability on managed switches (fairly obvious, since you need a management interface to configure port mirroring). This usually means SNMP capable too. So do your regular search on a managed switch or SNMP capable switch and chances are it will do what you want. Allied Telesyn probably has the lowest price managed switch I've seen but I think Netgear has one too. I am too lazy to dig up information at the moment - let me know if you have trouble finding them. Best bang for the buck category: HP ProCurve 4000M. 40 switched 10/100 ports (that's with the chassis half filled). $1499 (with a $400 HP rebate) from www.warehouse.com. Try not to buy up all the inventory because we're going to need one or two soon. :-) Tim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
