3.9 RMON
Remote Monitoring (RMON) is an extension of SNMP and is a method of monitoring network traffic.
So, while SNMP tracks network devices, RMON tracks traffic. In tandem, SNMP and RMON help
network administrators to monitor network performance and troubleshoot issues.
RMON is deployed as an SNMP MIB. The RMON MIB is composed of data associated with Ethernet
traffic activity to help identify and address performance issues.
