5.18.5 Remote network monitoring protocol (RMON)
Network monitoring protocol (RMON) is the extension of SNMP that provides broader network
traffic management capabilities. The main difference between RMON and SNMP is the nature of the
information being collected. The data collected by RMON describes the traffic between the network
nodes. Information collected by the agent is transmitted to the network management application.
