The DME server always collects and stores information about how the devices use DME.
In addition, some device platforms collect information about voice calls, messaging, and GPRS usage, and if you enable traffic logging on the clients, this information will be sent to the DME server. The information can be used for traffic analysis, either by using the built-in reports in the DME Administration interface or by using custom BIRT reports (see Analyzer reports). The results of the statistical analysis give an overview of expected costs of device usage, perhaps as a basis for negotiating new rates with your operator or for optimizing your use of network operators.
For more information about the presentation of the traffic logging data in the DME server, see Statistics and Analyzer reports.
Please note that the collection of statistics relies on a number of factors, including the ability of devices of different makes and models to collect and report the numbers correctly to the DME server. The DME server builds the statistics base on the received data, and DME cannot guarantee the correctness or completeness of this information.
The following types of usage information may be collected:
Each traffic type is described in the following.
