A MON box, is short for Monitoring box.
It runs the sites R-GMA Server and the sites Grid Ice Server. The CE
is the Computing interface, the SE is the Storage Interface and the MON
box is where to find the Monitoring interfaces (note that this is
plural!). A separate machine is recommended as if the monitoring system
breaks the machine, it does not bring down the CE or SE.
