A computer implemented method, data processing system, and computer program product for enabling network statistics to be collected per software partition. When an incoming data packet is received at the Internet Protocol (IP) layer of an operating system, the IP address in the incoming data packet is identified. The IP address in the incoming data packet is then compared against IP addresses stored in a hash table, wherein the hash table maps each IP address in the hash table to a software partition of the operating system. If an IP address in the hash table matches the IP address in the data packet, the software partition mapped to the located IP address in the hash table is identified. Network statistics collected for the incoming data packet are then associated with the software partition.
