Abstract
Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, network traffic management apparatuses, and network traffic management systems that determine when an event has occurred. The event is defined in an obtained rule and is associated in the rule with a key. The key is attached to a connection associated with received network traffic that triggered the event, when the determining indicates that the event has occurred. The connection is associated with a first layer, the key comprises an input string value or corresponds to a portion of data associated with a second layer associated with the network traffic, and the second layer is different from the first layer. The connection is then monitored to obtain statistics for the connection and store or report the statistics as associated with the key.
