78 Web-Based Management ELH100-12/24TXHistory Control EntryRMON can be used to create a record of network utilization, packet types,errors and collisions. You need a historical record of activity to track downintermittent problems. Historical data can also be used to establish normalbaseline activity, which may reveal problems associated with high trafficlevels, broadcast storms, or other unusual events. Historical informationcan also be used to predict network growth and plan for expansion beforeyour network becomes too overloaded. Select “History” then “HistoryControl Entry” to display the collection items defined in the history controltable.Item DescriptionHistory Index An index that uniquely identifies an entry in the History Controltable.
