Hi there,

You cannot use a Loopback as a reflector port. It has to be a physical port.
Use any unused port as a reflector port as it goes down for Monitoring.

Thanks for your replay and answer Mr. Shekhar

Is it possible to use as a loopback interface as a reflector port.
suppose in lab I will face any remote spam question like this from one
switch
to another and both are 3550.
what i do?
May I create and use a loopback interface as a reflector port?
or
May I use a unused port as a reflector port?

please correct me?
