Nowadays, computer networks become very complex. Thousands of nodes distributed in various places. Within this complexity, it has become impossible task to monitor large networks by human effort only. Thus, there are urgent needs to find convenient solutions to help networks managers in managing and monitoring their networks. This study presents a monitoring system, named Remote Network Monitoring System (RNMS). The proposed system empowered the networks mangers to remotely monitor their network’s computers. Therefore, a web-based monitoring system has been designed using UML models, and then the system has been developed using ASP.Net with VB.Net scripts. The proposed system is based on SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). The SNMP provides efficacious means to access the remote agent’s MIB’s (Management Information Base) objects. Furthermore, this study has evaluated and tested the RNMS using the verification test (unit, integration, and system testing), and the validation test (user acceptance test) based on TAM (Technology Acceptance Model).
