ABSTRACT:
There is provided a method of determining user specific usage of a network, wherein a user is accessing the network for a session from a client system via a layer two access port of a switch, wherein the layer two access port of the switch is assigned to the user of the client system for that session, wherein a first value, which is indicative of the magnitude of a packet counter of the layer two access port, is determined when the layer two access port becomes active, wherein a second value, which is indicative of the magnitude of the packet counter, is determined when the layer two access port becomes inactive, and wherein the first value and the second value are stored.
