I'm wanting to create a mirror port off the RT-AC68U. I could use an iptables tee but I was hoping to do it another way. What I'm thinking is to use the traffic control subsystem (tc) and create some filters to do the mirroring. But from what I can tell, I need an interface to mirror to. So how do I use one of the switch ports? Somehow remove one of the ports from the switch and get it recognized as its own device/interface? Has anyone tried this?
I see some promising things in the NVRAM but I'm not sure if messing around with NVRAM will help or if I will permanently screw something up.
# nvram show | grep -E "vlan1|et0"
et0macaddr=<removed>
et0mdcport=0
vlan2hwname=et0
lan_ifnames=vlan1 eth1 eth2 wl0.1
vlan1hwname=et0
vlan1ports=1 2 3 4 5*
wandevs=et0
et0phyaddr=30
landevs=vlan1 wl0 wl1
Thanks.
