Abstract
A system, computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, and a computer-implemented method for tracking network traffic of users in a research panel are presented. A packet for a network device coupled to the network access device is received. An indicia corresponding to a presumptive user of the network device is obtained, where the presumptive user includes a member of a set of known users. One or more logging rules is applied to the network device, where the one or more applied logging rules correspond to the obtained indicia. Information relating to the packet is stored when the packet satisfies at least one of the logging rules applied to the network device.
