Hi Rotta,

Please see the article https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-SPAN-Port-Mirroring-using-ports-associated... on configuring span ports by setting up interfaces in soft-switch.

 

Best regards,

It doesnt matter whether the interface is copper/fiber for spanning, interface members of soft-switch interface could be spanned.

A web filter company used port mirroring to mirror all Internet bound traffic to the filter. If the filter saw a request to an objectionable destination, it would spoof a TCP reset from the destination, and the client browser would fail to connect to the site.
