5.4.3 Introduction to RMON
RMON is the most important expansion of the standard SNMP. RMON is a set of MIB definitions,
used to define standard network monitor functions and interfaces, enabling the communication between
SNMP management terminals and remote monitors. RMON provides a highly efficient method to
monitor actions inside the subnets.
MID of RMON consists of 10 groups. The switch supports the most frequently used group 1, 2, 3
and 9
Statistics Maintain basic usage and error statistics for each subnet monitored by the Agent.
History Record periodical statistic samples available from Statistics.
Alarm Allow management console users to set any count or integer for sample intervals and alert
thresholds for RMON Agent records.
Event A list of all events generated by RMON Agent.
Alarm depends on the implementation of Event. Statistics and History display some current or
history subnet statistics. Alarm and Event provide a method to monitor any integer data change in the
network, and provide some alerts upon abnormal events (sending Trap or record in logs).
