I want to make a wireshark trace on a PC connected to a mirror port of a switch but I see a lot of Resets and redirects due to this wireshark PC.

I just want to make a logging showing IP traffic on the original port that is mirrored to the mirror port. Do I have to do some special setting in Wireshark?

What makes you think this is because of 'this Wireshark PC'?

What kind of port mirroring are you using? Can you post a PCAP on a public share? There are certain mirrors that encapsulate the traffic in another layer of UDP and IP. The PC might react to this traffic and make you think it's RST and redirects.

I am not sure about coding.
