Is the 7800N capable of port mirroring?

Try the following link

It only works for a PPPOE connection though

Hmmm.

I'm using FTTC and billion in bridge mode.

I might just buy a managed switch... Be easier

Port mirroring won't work in EWAN mode, you have to put a hub in between the modem and router to capture packets (PC connects to the hub)

Yeah I have

FTTC modem -- Billion Router in bridge -- Pfsense firewall and control connect to exchange ---- unmanaged switch

I might swap out switch for managed one and port mirror all ports to allow mirroring to my OSSIM for analysis.
