This feature roadmap lists the Remote Monitoring (RMON) features documented in the RMON Support section of the Cisco IOS Network Management Configuration Guide and maps them to the documents in which they appear. The roadmap is organized so that you can select your release train and see the features in that release. Find the feature name you are searching for and click on the URL in the "Where Documented" column to access the document containing that feature.

Many legacy features have been incorporated into the configuration files, and these features may not have entries in this roadmap. In addition, information in this roadmap supports other software releases or platforms. For the latest feature information and caveats, see the release notes for your platform and software release.

RMON Full

Remote Monitoring (RMON) is a standard monitoring specification that enables various network monitors and console systems to exchange network-monitoring data. RMON provides network administrators with more freedom in selecting network-monitoring probes and consoles with features that meet their particular networking needs. The RMON Full feature identifies activity on individual nodes and helps monitor all nodes and their interaction on a LAN segment. Used in conjunction with the SNMP agent in a router, RMON can be used to view both traffic that flows through the router and segment traffic not necessarily destined for the router.
