+
+  Use this command to mirror the inbound traffic from one Ethernet interface to
+  another interface. This feature is typically used to provide a copy of traffic
+  inbound on one interface to a system running a monitoring or IPS application
+  on another interface. The benefit of mirroring the traffic is that the
+  application is isolated from the source traffic and so application processing
+  does not affect the traffic or the system performance.
