RMON-Lite
This chapter explains how to configure the RMON-Litescreens.
19.1 RMON-Lite Overview
The Remote Network Monitoring Management Information Base (RMON MIB) defines objects for managing remote network monitoring devices. The remote network monitoring devices, referred to as monitors or probes, are usually stand-alone devices and devote significant internal resources for the purposes of managing a network. There are a total of nine RMON MIB groups defined in RFC 2819. The switch supports four of the RMON MIB groups:
•Group 1 (Statistics)
•Group 2 (History)
•Group 3 (Alarm)
•Group 9 (Event)
The switch’s implementation is therefore referred to as RMON-Lite. The following sections describe how to configure the RMON-Lite settings on the switch. Refer to RFC 2819 for more information on RMON MIBs.
