Abstract
A method of identifying quality-of-service problems associated with a given Web server in a computer network. The Web server includes a Web page having a token declaring that quality-of-service information is to be collected. When the Web page is received at a Web client having the capability to collect the information, an indication is provided to the Web client user that the information is being collected. The collected quality-of-service information is then uploaded, preferably without any information identifying the user, either to the Web server that served the page or to a management server.
