On ACX Series platforms running Junos EVO, the port-mirroring analyzer configuration requires unit 0 as the ingress input. This is a syntactic requirement only - mirroring is implemented in hardware at the physical interface (IFD) level, so traffic on every configured VLAN sub-unit (IFL) on that interface is mirrored.

Analyzer input can only be on .0 interfaces

Port mirroring on ACX Series running Junos OS Evolved is implemented in hardware at the IFD (physical interface) level, not at the IFL (sub-unit) level. The analyzer configuration must reference unit 0 as the ingress input, but the forwarding hardware mirrors all ingress traffic on the physical interface - regardless of which VLAN sub-unit the traffic arrives on.
