<p>A method and apparatus for measuring application performance over a wireless data network is presented herein. A wireless content switch (108) is placed between a wired network (112) and a wirel ess client (102) such that data packets sent from the wired network (112) to the wireless client (102) and vice versa are received at the wireless content switch (108). The wireless content switch (108) examines the protocol stack and data associated with the data packet and measures the performance of applications. The performance of applications is measured using one of a plurality of measures, based on the type of application associated with the data packet. Wherein an application is found to be associated with low performance, graceful degradation can be imposed.</p> |
