| 摘 要： | To improve the scalability of RMON-based network management, the concept of Mobile RMON Agent （MRA） was presented by combining the mobile agent technology with RMON. Then an MRA-based Network Management System （MRANMS） was designed and implemented. RMON functions were achieved by programming the mobile agent to make it capture and analyze packets locally. The experimental result on the Grasshopper platform indicates that MRA as a mobile agent can migrate to another subnet and calculate a RMON MIB value and TrafficMatrix in a subnet with 29 hosts. Furthermore, the behavior of MRA can be customized to achieve new RMON functions, such as the statistics of hostTable in RMON MIB. It can be concluded that MRANMS is based on the mode of distribution, and besides the compatibility with standard RMON, the system possesses scalability of management function.
