RMON
The Remote Network Monitoring (RMON) MIB is an interface between the
RMON agent on a BayStack 380-24F Gigabit Switch and an RMON management
application, such as the Device Manager. It defines objects that are suitable for the
management of any type of network, but some groups are targeted for Ethernet
networks in particular. The RMON agent continuously collects statistics and
proactively monitors switch performance. You can view this data through the
Device Manager.

RMON has three major functions:
•
Creating and displaying alarms for user-defined events
•
Gathering cumulative statistics for Ethernet interfaces
•
Tracking a history of statistics for Ethernet interfaces
Working with RMON information
You can view RMON information by looking at the Graph information associated
