"no action" is activated for the loop reaction remote function.
"disable" is the default after enabling loop detection.

Note
It cannot be guaranteed when mirroring the data traffic that all packets are mirrored.
With the port mirroring function, you copy the data stream of one or more ports to another
interface to be able to analyze this data stream without disturbing operation.
Note
Mirroring a port does not work beyond switch core boundaries.
Note
You need to disable port mirroring if you want to connect a normal end device to the monitor
port.
