Abstract

See full text

A computer-based method for depicting the participating devices of a multicast group based on the transmit and the receive activities of the devices in a computer network is described. The method includes extracting, from a database, a single instance of each unique packet header associated with a plurality of multicast packets, the multicast packets having been transmitted across the computer network over a predefined period of time, calculating a number of bytes transferred for each source internet protocol (IP) to destination IP multicast tuple from the extracted packets, determining a location of the source IP address and a bandwidth associated with the source IP address from the extracted packets, determining a location of the devices subscribing to the packets and a bandwidth associated with each of the destination sites, and providing a display of all multicast traffic, wherein the multicast traffic is summarized in a user selectable list.
