Abstract

A method for categorizing a downloading of a resource to a user device from a resource server in a data network is provided. Data of one or more Layer 7 protocol requests from the client device is received at an intermediate server in the data network. The intermediate server forwards the data of each of the one or more Layer 7 protocol requests to the resource server and receives data of one or more Layer 7 protocol responses from the resource server, each Layer 7 protocol response corresponding to a respective one of the Layer 7 protocol requests. The intermediate server categorizes the downloading of the resource to the client device as being one of one or more pre-defined download categories, based on a count of the one or more Layer 7 protocol responses and the determined sizes or estimated sizes of the one or more Layer 7 protocol responses.
