Traffic mirroring to 2 destination ports (1GE- BaseT&10GE -SR) restrictions-best practices

[Gabriel_Poza]

Hi community

we need to mirror all incoming traffic from port A to x2 different ports (B&C). Port A is 10G-LR, port B is 1GE-baseT and port C is 10G-SR.
In regards of the configuration and restrictions:
Is there any configuration issue when there's a media type mismatch between both destination ports?
According to the doc below, it seems that when we mirror traffic to more than x1 destination port, we lose x1 physical port availability because of the loopback port configuration. Is this correct?: https://extremeportal.force.com/ExtrArticleDetail?an=000081804

Is there any other condition/restriction to consider?

Thx in advance.

Gabriel,

You will lose one port for the internal loopback. I'm not sure of the link speed of port A, but if it was 10G The only downside would be that the 1G mirror port can only mirror 1Gbps. Anything over 1Gbps will be dropped.

Hope this helps!
