In summary, RMON can provide a number of host-derived statistics; and stores these statistics in several different ways for the convenience of the end user.
In the previous example, we studied how RMON maintains statistics of a networks operation. In this case study, we will show how RMON can extend that capability to send a notification if a particular network parameter has exceeded the range of acceptable operation. The network consists of a single Ethernet segment with an attached RMON network management console and remote monitoring agent, or probe (Figure 7-11). In order for the probe to monitor and respond to a particular network statistic, it must first be programmed by the manager (see Trace 7.11a).
