About RMONGrabber

RMONGrabber enables users of EtherPeek, EtherPeek NX, and OmniPeek to interactively troubleshoot remote networks in the same way, and with the same powerful features, that are available when using these analyzers to troubleshoot local networks. A network administrator can communicate with an RMON probe in a remote office location and instantly view the packets in a capture window, identifying problem situations without having to make an expensive and inconvenient off-site visit. When installed with EtherPeek NX or OmniPeek, RMONGrabber can also build Peer Maps and perform Expert Analyses on remote network segments.
