1. A method of monitoring a network with a test device connected to the network, comprising:

  • monitoring a plurality of packets which pass through the test device, comparing a predefined field of each of the plurality of packets to a predefined pattern so as to identify signature packets, evaluating whether the signature packets satisfy a predefined condition, and, when the predefined condition is satisfied, sending a notification to a user, wherein each of the signature packets includes at least two QoS fields, and the evaluating step comprises determining whether a combination of values in the QoS fields is a permitted combination.
