Use the RMON History Configuration page to collect statistics on a physical

interface to monitor network utilization, packet types, and errors. A

historical record of activity can be used to track down intermittent

problems. The record can be used to establish normal baseline activity,

which may reveal problems associated with high traffic levels, broadcast

storms, or other unusual events. It can also be used to predict network

growth and plan for expansion before your network becomes too

overloaded.
