Legend:-Not applicable n: Number of member switches

Note #1

In a stack configuration, the capacity limits increase according to the number of member switches. However, the capacity limits of the VLAN interface remains the same.

In standalone mode, n is 1.

Note #2

The maximum number of entries for receiving-side policy-based mirroring is the maximum number of entries when the same flow-detection condition (MAC condition, IPv4 condition, and IPv6 condition) is specified for all the entry blocks from 0 entries when the function is not specified for the entry block.
