Configuring RMON Events
Use the Administration > RMON (Configure Global - Add - Event) page to set the action to take when
an alarm is triggered. The response can include logging the alarm or sending a message to a trap
manager. Alarms and corresponding events provide a way of immediately responding to critical
network problems.
