If you select this check box, Remote Monitoring (RMON) allows diagnostics data to be
collected on the device, prepared and read out using SNMP by a network management
station that also supports RMON. This diagnostic data, for example port-related load
trends, allow problems in the network to be detected early and eliminated. Some of the
"Ethernet statistics counters" are part of the RMON function. If you disable RMON, the
"Ethernet statistics counter" in "Information > Ethernet Statistics" is no longer updated.
You can configure other settings in "Layer 2 > RMON".

Enable or disable port mirroring. You can configure other settings in "Layer 2 > Mirroring".
● Loop Detection

detected. You will find other settings in "Layer 2 > Loop Detection"
