Abstract

Network monitoring method and apparatus determines the zero window event data transfer delay, reporting the amount of data transfer delay caused thereby. Non-data-transfer-delaying zero window events can be separated from those causing actual delay, allowing reporting of actual delay events separate from non-delay causing events.
