3278.1rmon mib helps you monitor ethernets (typicaly)CLARID::PATELWe'll get it right on the nightWed Jul 01 1992 09:1512
    >>    . rmon_std_mibdef.txt

    is the remote monitoring mib definition.  You cant actually manage
    other equipment with it.  It allows you to access information from
    equipment that provides monitoring data, this is called a RMON probe.

    a RMON probe is typically dedicated to listening to the traffic on the
    ethernet and doing some post processing ie working out utilization,
    collision rate etc... if you have RMON mib defined in the management
    system then you can access this data.

    Hi Amrit,
    
    And thank you for your reply !
    
    Effectively, RMON mib is used to manage RMON probe. But, more
    precisely, which kinds of hardware equipments (vendors, firmwares, agents)
    are manageable nowadays through that mib ?
    
    Regards,
    Renato
    
    PS : No idea for ETHERNET_STD_MIBDEF.TXT private MIB ? (in the same
    way...) ?
