Electronic device, system on chip and method of monitoring data traffic

Therefore, an electronic device is provided which comprises a plurality of processing units (IP1-IP6), and a network-based interconnect (N) coupling the processing units (IP1-IP6) for enabling at least one first communication path (C) between the processing units (IP1-IP6). The electronic device furthermore comprises at least one first monitoring unit (P1) for monitoring a data traffic of the at least one first communication path and for outputting monitoring results via at least one second communication path (MC1), and at least one second monitoring unit (P2) for monitoring a data traffic of the at least one second communication path (C) and for outputting monitoring results via at least one third communication path (MC2).
