Abstract

The fast changing application types and their behavior require consecutive measurements of access networks. In this paper, we present the results of a 14-day measurement in an access network connecting 600 users with the Internet. Our application classification reveals a trend back to HTTP traffic, underlines the immense usage of flash videos, and unveils a participant of a Botnet. In addition, flow and user statistics are presented, which resulting traffic models can be used for simulation and emulation of access networks.
