Abstract

See full text

Provided are a method and system for achieving enhanced performance in communications involving one or more emulated networks overlaid onto at least one base network, where the emulation is performed by one or more network emulation servers-broadcast and unknown servers. The objects of the method and system are achieved via the following. Monitoring addresses of data transiting the one or more network emulation servers-broadcast and unknown servers where such monitored addresses are indicative of one or more functions provided by the one or more emulated networks. Tracking the monitored addresses. Comparing the tracked addresses, indicative of on or more functions provided by the one more emulated networks, with one or more prespecified thresholds indicative of monopolization of resources of the at least one emulated network. And, taking corrective action when the aforementioned comparing of addresses indicates that one or more entities associated with the tracked addresses are monopolizing resources of the at least one emulated network such that communications involving the at least one emulated network are enhanced.
