Abstract: A method and apparatus for the measurement of power consumption, bandwidth usage and the monitoring of the operation of a network from another network. The primary intended application is for an enterprise network (1st network) to be able to measure power and bandwidth of a small cell network (2nd network) or networks that share some of the infrastructure with the enterprise network (1stnetwork). Power and network bandwidth usage per unit time can be measured and used to support interparty billing. In addition, the network and power infrastructure of the 2nd network can be monitored by the 1st network for operational integrity and performance. Sensitive information can be protected with strong encryption to allow it to use unsecured networking (and compute) facilities without exposure to unauthorized access.
