Configuring RMON

• Configuring RMON Alarms and Events, page 12-3 (required)

• Collecting Group History Statistics on an Interface, page 12-5 (optional)

• Collecting Group Ethernet Statistics on an Interface, page 12-6 (optional)

Configuring RMON Alarms and Events

You can configure your switch for RMON by using the command-line interface (CLI) or an

SNMP-compatible network management station. We recommend that you use a generic RMON console

application on the network management station (NMS) to take advantage of the RMON network

management capabilities.
