Understanding RMON
RMON is an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard monitoring specification that allows
various network agents and console systems to exchange network monitoring data. You can use the
RMON feature with the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent in the switch to monitor
all the traffic flowing among switches on all connected LAN segments.
