Using SNMP To Monitor and

Manage the Switch

Advanced Management: RMON and

EASE Support

The Management Module supports RMON (Remote Monitoring) and EASE on

all network segments connected to the switch. This allows for troubleshooting

and optimizing of your network.

RMON

The following RMON groups are supported:

■ Ethernet Statistics (except the numbers of packets of different frame

sizes)

■ Alarm

■ History (of the supported Ethernet statistics)

■ Event

You can access the Ethernet statistics, Alarm, and Event groups from the

HP AdvanceStack Assistant network management software included with

your Switch Management Module.

EASE

EASE (Embedded Advanced Sampling Environment) is a network monitoring

and troubleshooting tool that analyzes traffic from a network-wide perspec-

tive. EASE notifies you about network problems and identifies the end node

at fault. That information can be used to set up RMON to study the problem

more closely, if desired. Because it is based on statistical sampling instead of

RMON’s all-inclusive collection schema, EASE lessens the load on devices and

network bandwidth. See the Traffic Monitor portion of the HP AdvanceStack

Assistant CD-ROM (supplied with your Management Module) for more infor-

mation on using EASE.
