Abstract :
Peer-to-peer (P2P) applications are voracious bandwidth consumers, and ISPs have no effective options for curbing their bandwidth consumption. The Transparent Network Tracker (TnT) is a network device that fills this void: it identifies and monitors P2P traffic on the wire to support applications that control it. In this paper, we describe our TnT prototype and an associated ISP tracker application.
