Mirroring is becoming more common on cheaper switches.  I have an 8 port 1 Gb D-Link with that capability that cost

We should probably update our page about switches in the Wiki to mention newer switches:

        https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/wikis/SwitchReference

(or, if there's a page elsewhere that has this information, point to it rather than to our Wiki page).

For the benefit of others reading this thread, there's also the Hub Reference:

        https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/wikis/HubReference

and the Tap Reference:

        https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/wikis/TapReference

and the Ethernet Capture Setup page:
