Abstract
A system for correlating communication packets across different communication networks includes a first monitoring agent in a first network for collecting local identifying information of a communication packet at a communication node. The first monitoring agent pairs the local identifying information with a public identifying information of the packet for a second network. The first monitoring agent further adds a timestamp to the collected information. A second monitoring agent in the second network receives a communication packet from the communication node and collects public identifying information of the packet. The second monitoring agent adds a time-stamp to the collected information. A third monitoring agent in the second network receives the information collected by the first and the second monitoring agents and correlates packets based on the received information. The third monitoring agent determines when specific packets captured from the first network and the second network are related to each other.
