Roving analysis port on 3com 4400 dadoo3002 08-03-06

Does anyone out there know how to set up the roving analysis port on a
3com 4400? There's no mention of it on the web interface. If I Telnet
in, go to "feature/rovingAnalysis", and use the "add" command, I get
"No ports are available to be used for Roving Analysis."

I tried removing the desired port from its VLAN, enabling/disabling it,
etc., all with no effect.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I have no experience of this hardware:-

Have you enabled Roving Analysys globally?

Do you have fairly current firmware in that switch? The latest is
2.72,
released Sept. 2004. Monitoring may not be available in older
firmwares
(mine has 2.71).

In the web GUI, click Configuration on the left-hand side, then click
"Roving Analysis Port." Then change "Roving Analysis State" to
"Enabled," and select a port to monitor (looks like you can only
monitor
one at a time) and a port to mirror it to (analysis port). If you have

a stack you should be able to have a monitor port and analysis port in
different units.
