Hi Experts,
I will have Summit400-24p, Summit400-48t and Alpine 3804 in my networks. I plan to put IP probe and configure port mirroring in each lan switch in order to capture all traffic in the other ports.
Are there any impact  on CPU or performance of lan switches  if I configure 1 ports for monitoring port and this port will monitor/mirror the others port in each LAN Switch
I plan to mirror 21 ports in Summit400-24, 40 ports ports in Summit400-48 and 40 ports in Alpine3804.
As additional information, Each port will contain 2Mbps throughput.

Thank you in advance for your kind help.

Ifan
