Configuring and Enabling RMON
By default, RMON is disabled on the GSR. To configure and enable RMON on the GSR,
follow these steps:
1.
Turn on the Lite, Standard, or Professional RMON groups by entering the
rmon set
lite|standard|professional
command. You can also configure default control tables
for the Lite, Standard, or Professional RMON groups by including the
default-tables
yes
parameter.
2.
Enable RMON on specified ports with the
rmon set ports
command.
3.
Optionally, you can configure control tables for the Lite, Standard, or Professional
RMON groups. For example, if you chose
not
to create default control tables for the
Lite, Standard, or Professional groups, you can configure control table entries for
specific ports on the GSR.
4.
Use the
rmon enable
command to enable RMON on the GSR.
