CONFIGURING RMON HISTORY SAMPLES
Use the RMON History Configuration page to collect statistics on a physical
interface to monitor network utilization, packet types, and errors. A
historical record of activity can be used to track down intermittent
problems. The record can be used to establish normal baseline activity,
which may reveal problems associated with high traffic levels, broadcast
storms, or other unusual events. It can also be used to predict network
growth and plan for expansion before your network becomes too
overloaded.
