Abstract
A system has a packet switch for routing network traffic. The packet switch includes a system counter to increment a counter time in predetermined time segments, time stamping logic to associate a received packet with the counter time, and an interval discriminator to assign a received packet to a selected interval counter of a set of interval counters based upon the counter time. A computer is connected to the packet switch. The computer has a memory with instructions executed by a processor to associate the counter time with a time of day, and collect values from the set of interval counters to generate network traffic activity data.
