An RMON agent is a probe that collects information about segments, hosts, and traffic, and
sends the information to a management station. You use specific software tools to view the
information collected by the RMON agent on the management station.
You can configure RMON for switching on the Branch Gateway. The Branch Gateway uses
RMON I, which analyzes the MAC layer (Layer 2 in the OSI seven-layer model). You can also
configure a port to raise an SNMP trap whenever the port fails.
