Abstract
In one embodiment, an edge network device may monitor a network service that is provided at a network service device. Information related to the monitored network service may be temporarily stored at the edge network device and transmitted to a remote network device. In one embodiment, an administrative device may compare current extracted information with stored historical information to determine if a unique machine identifier of an end user device has been spoofed.
