Hello, it's me again with another question regarding ACLs.

I haven't found anything useful in the user manual / user guide hence this topic here.

1.) Port Mirroring does not work for "denied" packets

I was under the impression one could simply "mirror" the denied traffic to inspect all blocked packets on a specific port.

Of course, I can understand why mirroring would not mirror any packets that have been matched as "deny".

However, why is it then, that I'm still able to select "Policy->Mirror" in the ACL when Mode is set to "Deny"?

I think the same applies to redirect.

2.) Port Redirection does not work for DHCP traffic

The answer to this might be the answer from my previous question: if DHCP traffic isn't handled by the CPU then this might explain why the DHCP traffic is not being redirected.

I hope someone can give me some insight into why I'm encountering this behaviour.

If a configuration is requested then I'll provide one but I think this is not necessary.
