RMON (Remote Monitoring)

RMON, or Remote Monitoring, is a technology that allows network administrators to monitor and analyze the performance and activity of a network from a distance. It collects data on various aspects of the network, such as traffic flow, errors, and usage patterns, helping identify potential issues before they affect users. RMON operates through special monitoring devices that gather information without interrupting network operations. This proactive approach enhances network reliability and efficiency, enabling quick responses to problems and better overall management of network resources.
