Port Mirroring as direct connection
Can port mirroring be used to create a functionally direct connection between devices separated by one or more switches? Use case is an HDBaseT extender over ethernet. Can I plug the transmitter into Port X of one switch, mirror that port to Port Y of another switch, and connect the receiver to Port Y to create a direct connection between the transmitter and receiver? Or is there a better way to do this (e.g. static routing between ports?)?
