RMON

RMON Overview

RMON, the internationally recognized network monitoring standard, is a network
management protocol that allows network information to be gathered at a single
workstation. You can use RMON probes to monitor and analyze a single segment
only. When you deploy a switch on the network, there are additional components in
the network that cannot be monitored using RMON. These components include the
switch fabric, VLAN, and statistics for all ports.
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.
RMON has two levels:
• RMON I analyzes the MAC layer (Layer 2 in the OSI seven-layer model).
• RMON 2 analyzes the upper layers (Layers 3 and above).
RMON 2 is not supported in this version of the P330.
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.
