1. One or more computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed on one or more processors, perform acts comprising:
- identifying one or more machines connected to a network of machines;
performing an address resolution procedure on each of the one or more machines to determine one or more machine specific identifiers associated with each of the one or more machines; and
applying a dynamic weighting to each identified machine on the network of machines as a function of a determined transience of each identified machine.

Abstract
Techniques described herein describe a dynamic time weighted network identification and/or fingerprinting method. A method includes identifying one or more machines connected to a network of machines; performing an address resolution procedure on each of the one or more machines to determine one or more machine specific identifiers associated with each of the one or more machines; and applying a dynamic weighting to each identified machine on the network of machines as a function of a determined transience of each identified machine.

12. A computer-readable medium having computer-executable components comprising:
-
an identification module configured to identify one or more machines connected to a network of machines; an address resolution module coupled to the identification module, the address resolution module configured to determine one or more machine specific identifiers associated with each of the one or more machines on the network of machines; and a dynamic weighting module coupled to the identification module, the identification module configured to assign a weight to each of the one or more machines as a function of a determined transience of each identified machine. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15)

16. A method for determining machine-specific statistics associated with a network, the method comprising:
-
receiving network identification data from one or more machines in a network; transmitting externally available network data to the one or more machines on the network to enable identification of the one or more machines; receiving transience data from the one or more machines, the transience data indicative of a transience associated with the one or more machines; and generating transience statistical data from the transience data from the one or more machines and stored transience data. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
