Port mirroring is a method used on a network switch to send a copy of network packets seen on one switch port (or an entire VLAN) to a network monitoring connection on another switch port. This is useful for monitoring the network traffic for diagnostics and troubleshooting. Enabling port mirroring will allow the administrator to capture and analyze the traffic passing through port number 24. Configuring any form of QoS or VLAN settings would not achieve the goal of traffic monitoring, as those are used for managing bandwidth and segmenting networks respectively.
