Abstract

A distributed system for analyzing traffic flow on a communications network architecture where a computer provides information over a data network to a concentrator, which provides a bridge between the computer and the end user terminals. The interface between the terminals and the concentrator is provided through access points for each workstation. The system to analyze the traffic is distributed into three components that perform, respectively, classification of the traffic flow, processing of the results of the classification, and handling of the processed results.
