Remote MONitor - The specification for gathering SNMP information from an RMON compliant network device.
An SNMP standard for managing network devices; lets network engineers with properly configured SNMP management consoles view packet information on a port-by-port basis.
is an extension of MIB-II that gives certain devices the ability to serve as micro-monitors for their segments of a network. RMON provides a means of distributing network monitoring functions down through the network to certain strategically placed smart devices (RMON probes). RMON agents reside on network equipment much the same as typical SNMP agents, providing information to the collection points. Data from the collection points is stored until software interrogates the probe and displays the information for the network manager. The information is network and traffic-oriented in contrast to traditional SNMP information which is more device-oriented. Information is gathered in groups such as statistics, history, alarms, hosts, and traffic matrix. RMON is typically used to get a ground-level view of traffic trends so appropriate scaling and growth plans can be made.
SNMP specification for multivendor statistics-gathering by a standards-based (de facto SNMP) management station from de facto standard (RMON)-compliant devices.
Part of the MIB that is used in SNMP. RMON defines 9 types of information that can be used to monitor networks and network devices. RMON2 is an extension...
SNMP-based standard for reporting various network conditions. RMON has 10 different management groups which provide detailed information about a network.
A monitoring methodology for measuring traffic flow and setting alarms for error conditions. It doesn't require polling (as SNMP does).
Remote Network Manitoring MIB.
RMON stands for Remote Monitoring. It is a standard used in telecommunications equipment e.g. in routers, which implement a MIB (Management Information Base) which allows for remote monitoring and management of network equipment. RMON uses an agent running on the device being monitored to supply information over SNMP to a management workstation (or some other system). http://www.snmp.com/products/emanate.html EMANATE is such an agent.
