Hi,
If you read the link, you will see that you need either more equipment
or read up on doing MITMA or Macflooding.
My suggestion is to get a switch that actually supports Monitor/SPAN,
its the easiest way to do the job and get a quite good result.
How to then setup the switch, depends on the switch you use.
Best Regards
