Extended RMON Module chapter in Data Collector Reference.
To access standard RMON data
1 In Agent Manager or OpenView NNM, select one or
more RMON data sources.
2 If necessary, initialize the agent’s RMON tables.
3 Select an item from the Performance➤Network
Analysis
➤RMON➤ menu.
4 If needed, select the interface to use.
When you start Load Monitor in this fashion, the application retrieves
MAC-layer statistics from the data source and uses that data to con-
struct Load Monitor views.
Figure 54 on page 252 shows the relationship between Agent Manager,
Load Monitor, and an RMON agent.
When you start Load Monitor, the base window and a view window are
opened. (If you select the Display Control menu item, a view window is
not opened automatically). Figure 55 on page 255 shows the base
window. For information on the view window, refer to page 258.
Table 27 on page 253 lists the Load Monitor launch options and corre-
sponding Zoom paths. Zoom paths are discussed on page 264.
Availability
The availability of certain Load Monitor features depend on the data
source and the launch method, as noted throughout this chapter. A
summary of feature availability is given on page 337.
