Abstract

A system (100) for associating a data collector (FIG. 2, 340-2) with a network account comprises a first computing device (FIG. 1, 115) to collect data associated with the use of a number of object devices (110-1, 110-2, 110-n) on a network, in which the first computing device creates a network account associated with a second computing device (FIG. 1, 105), and in which the system (100) assigns a filename (FIG. 12, 1205) to a data collector data packet (FIG. 2, 340-2), the filename (FIG. 12, 1205) comprising information related to the network account associated with the second computing device (FIG. 1, 105).
