Abstract
A device intercepts a request from a requesting device, and the request includes a network address or a universal resource locator (URL) for content. The device determines whether special handling is applicable when forwarding the content to the requesting device. The device establishes a session between the content device and the requesting device, and the session exchanges data via a pathway that includes a proxy. The proxy identifies data, including the requested content, exchanged in the session and determines whether the special handling was used when forwarding the data. The proxy forwards reporting data identifying the exchanged data and indicating whether the special handling was used when exchanging the data through the session.
