Zusammenfassung:A method for collecting and reporting monitored data for network traffic, which has been accumulated by a plurality of remote probes. The method includes making a series of polling requests for lists of monitoring data to each probe and receiving the requested lists. Each list has traffic count values that are identified by at least a sampling time, a source address, a destination address and a probe identifier. The method also includes calculating the traffic observed by each probe between successive sampling times and apportioning the calculated traffic data among a single set of consecutive temporal intervals and selecting best counts to avoid overcounting.
