Enable and Disable RMON
You can use your SNMP Network Management System (NMS) software
and the RMON section of the MIB tree to view the RMON statistics, history
and alarms associated with specific ports. Since RMON uses the SNMP
agent for communicating with your NMS software, the SNMP Agent must
be enabled and the SNMP feature must be configured on your switch.
Since RMON works in conjunction with the SNMP agent, the SNMP agent
must be enabled for the RMON feature to be active. See “User Interface
Configuration” on page 39 for activating SNMP. For instructions on how to
configure SNMP on your switch, refer to Chapter 16, “SNMPv1 and v2c”
on page 189 or Chapter 17, “SNMPv3” on page 201.

1. From the main menu on the left side of the page, click the RMON
folder.
