Since the last round of the discussion about RMON, I've intended to do
something about it, but as I haven't found the time so far I don't think
I will find it in the near future either. I've looked for free rmon and
a colleague told me abuot btng which he has alread used. It's an RMON
agent the compiles on several Unix platforms, so it should not be a
problem to have your own probe for testing :-)

I found the above link on the following page, which has some more
interesting links about snmp and rmon.
