What is RMON?

What will be an ideal response?


Remote Network Monitoring (RMON) is an SNMP-based tool that monitors networks using dedicated hardware devices. However, RMON is not a separate TCP/IP protocol; instead, it is part of SNMP. RMON uses SNMP but also incorporates a special database for remote monitoring that includes different groups of statistics. RMON at its core is simply a MIB module that defines a set of objects that are used by the hardware probes that permit advanced network management capabilities.
