It’s your third week on the job and your manager comes to you to help out with one of their ongoing challenges

It’s your third week on the job and your manager comes to you to help out with one of their ongoing challenges – having accurate data to manage all the diverse corporate networks and links. She knows that the company needs to get better with remote monitoring and has heard about RMON and RMON probes. Although she has a basic understanding, she is now wondering if these could be the answer.

She knows that you’ve had much experience in researching, analyzing and reporting on new technology during your academic career, and this is exactly what she needs now – for real. She has asked you to research and report on what RMON and RMON probes are and how they are utilized in enterprise network management systems and how they would benefit the company.

She needs your report to be thorough but not overwhelming and has decided that five to seven pages are ideal. She is scheduled to brief the Executive committee the middle of next week and has given you one week to deliver your report. It’s your time to shine!
