Description: This table controls the configuration of RMON collection based on statistical sampling techniques, for each monitored interface on the RMON probe. It is a SPARSE-AUGMENTS of the ifEntry found in the IF-MIB module.

An entry is created in this table at the same time the augmented ifEntry is created (usually at system startup time), for each interface which can be monitored by the RMON agent. An associated entry in the SMON MIB dataSourceCapsTable is also created for each RMON-capable interface at the same time.

An RMON collection is associated with a particular interface if the control table dataSource OBJECT IDENTIFIER is of the form 'ifIndex.I', and 'I' is the same value as the ifIndex value for the ifEntry and rmonSampleConfigEntry.
