Please don't drop the list.

If you want to interconnect networks, I don't think mirroring is what you want. 
 Mirroring is for sending a copy of traffic for some collector--usually for 
off-box analysis.  For testing, I would probably use vxlan or geneve (if it's 
available on your platform), since those will have the best performance 
characteristics with the fewest caveats if you later want to run it in 
production.  As I mentioned, though, any of the tunneling mechanisms are fine 
for testing.
