Rmon Cli Commands; Rmon Configuration Examples - Avaya G250 Administration

Configuring monitoring applications
RMON is the internationally recognized and approved standard for detailed analysis of shared
Ethernet media. It ensures consistency in the monitoring and display of statistics between
different vendors.
RMON's advanced remote networking capabilities provide the tools needed to monitor and
analyze the behavior of segments on a network. In conjunction with an RMON agent, RMON
gathers details and logical information about network status, performance and users running
applications on the network.
An RMON agent is a probe that collects information about segments, hosts and traffic and
sends the information to a management station. You use specific software tools to view the
information collected by the RMON agent on the management station.
You can configure RMON for switching on the Avaya G350 Media Gateway. The G250/G350
uses RMON I, which analyzes the MAC layer (Layer 2 in the OSI seven-layer model). You can
also configure a port to raise an SNMP trap whenever the port fails.
