Advanced Management: RMON and HP
Extended RMON Support
The switch supports RMON (Remote Monitoring) and HP Extended RMON
on all connected network segments. This allows for troubleshooting and
optimizing of your network.
RMON
The following RMON groups are supported:
Ethernet Statistics
Alarm
History (of the supported Ethernet statistics)
Event
You can access the Ethernet statistics, Alarm, and Event groups from the
HP TopTools for Hub & Switches network management software included
with your switch.
Extended RMON
Extended RMON provides network monitoring and troubleshooting informa-
tion that analyzes traffic from a network-wide perspective. Extended RMON
notifies you about network problems and identifies the end node at fault. That
information can be used to set up RMON to study the problem more closely,
if desired. Because it is based on detailed statistical sampling, Extended
RMON lessens the load on devices and network bandwidth.
