Method and system for monitoring communication and monitoring protocol
First Claim
1. A method for monitoring of software processes when communications other than network interfaces are used during communication of said software processes in a mobile telecommunication system, the method comprising the steps of:
- capturing monitoring data in at least one process;
serializing said monitoring data;
encapsulating said serialized monitoring data to at least one data packet; and
sending at least one encapsulated data packet comprising said serialized monitoring data from said at least one process to a monitoring endpoint outside said at least one process.

Abstract
A method, system and monitoring protocol for monitoring of software processes when communications other than network interfaces are used during communication in a mobile telecommunication system. In the invention monitoring data is captured in at least one process and serialized. The monitoring data is then encapsulated to at least one data packet and sent to a monitoring endpoint outside the at least one process. A monitoring tool captures the monitoring data from the monitoring endpoint and processes it further.
