Abstract
Techniques are described for detecting use of a network access node by multiple users to gain access to a network. Packets are received from a network device in communication with the network access node. The packets are evaluated with reference to a plurality of metrics. Each of the metrics is independently representative of an estimated number of user devices from which the packets originate.
