Permission denied for in-slice port mirroring

[Vaneshi Ramdhony]

Hello FABRIC team,

I have used this notebook: /jupyter-examples-<wbr />rel1.7.0/fabric_examples/<wbr />fablib_api/create_port_mirror/<wbr />port_mirror_basic.ipynb (Inslice-port mirroring) and port mirroring demo tutorial on youtube by Dr Paul Ruth.

sites used: FIU, BRIST

The slice status was Stable OK but failed to be submitted; Internal Server Error due to lack of permission.

Kindly advise which permissions are required for in-slice port mirroring. Below details might be helpful.

fablib version 1.7.4

Hi Vaneshi,

Your project would need Net.PortMirroring permission for this to work. Could you please check if your project has this permission? If not, Please request your Project Owner or Lead to request for these permissions from the portal.
More details for requesting the permissions can be found here.

Thanks,
Komal

Hello Komal,

Thank you for your prompt response.

Reference start_here notebook: Port Mirroring: Listen in on traffic in FABRIC dataplane using PortMirror service (Infrastructure, InSlice)

My project does not have the Net.PortMirroring tag. I believe the Net.PortMirroring tag is required only for Infrastructure requests and not for in-slice port mirroring. The in-slice port mirroring was said (reference: demo link time 25:00-26:00) to be available to anyone who wants to mirror their port and special permissions will only be needed for infrastructure requests.  I am currently performing the experiment using in-slice port mirroring. Kindly confirm this for me.

Regards,

Vaneshi

Hi Vaneshi,

We are working to update the Permissions, but in the current release, you need permission Net.PortMirroring for InSlice PortMirroring to work.

Thanks,

Thank you very much for the update.

Could you kindly provide an estimate of when this change might occur? This information would greatly assist us in aligning our timeline and planning for the experiments.

Thank you,

Regards,

Vaneshi
