Monitor mode possible on Powerconnect 2716 and/or 5324?
Hey all,
As the subject mentions, I'm trying to find out if there is a setting on either the Powerconnect 2716 or 5324 to set up a specific port in monitor mode (or promiscuous mode), similar to a Cisco switch. I'm trying to get a an IDS system to monitor some of our internal networks, and they're just not seeing all of the traffic when connected to the Dell switches. On other segments, using Cisco switches, putting the port the IDS is plugged into in monitor mode has allowed the IDS to see all traffic. I can't find the equivalent setting on our Dell switches. Am I missing it, or is there an easy way to get something like this set up?
Thanks!
