The RMON MIB is an interface between the RMON agent on the Passport 8000 Series switch and an RMON management application, such as the Device Manager. It defines objects that are suitable for the management of any type of network, but some groups are targeted for Ethernet networks in particular. Enabling RMON on the switch allows the RMON agent to continuously collect statistics and proactively monitor switch performance. This data can then be viewed through the Device Manager.
