[PVE-User] Network Tap?

[rupi]

hi,

i am not aware of any 'real' port mirror setup, but you can do something
like
tcpdump -s 0 -i vminterface -w fifo
and socat to get this on an other machine.

if you simply want to do traffic accounting i would use iptables counters.
this counters are overflow safe and accurate. simply add a rule in 
your firewall that matches the machine and don't do anything else.
