Configuring RMON

The switch supports RMON (Remote Monitoring) on all connected network segments. This
allows for troubleshooting and optimizing your network. The Magnum 6K family of switches
provides hardware-based RMON counters. The switch manager or a network management
system can poll these counters periodically to collect the statistics in a format that complies with
the RMON MIB definition.

The following RMON groups are supported:

• Ethernet Statistics Group - maintains utilization and error statistics for the switch port

being monitored.

• History Group – gathers and stores periodic statistical samples from previous Statistics

Group.

• Alarm Group – allows a network administrator to define alarm thresholds for any MIB

variable.

• Log and Event Group – allows a network administrator to define actions based on alarms.

SNMP Traps are generated when RMON Alarms are triggered.
