ABSTRACT:
Ingress to egress network traffic ratios are determined for at least some devices within a network and server-like devices are selected on the basis of the determined ratios or a figure derived from the determined ratios. Selecting the server-like devices includes the step of selecting those devices having a value of ratio above a selected value and includes ranking the devices in order of their ratios and determining discontinuities in the values of the ratios of the ranked devices. The server-like devices are connected to a port of another device and the ingress to egress network traffic ratio is determined by determining the network traffic through the port using SNMP.
