Gaining insight into device and data usage behavior exhibited by the participants of mobile networks is elementary for MNO and MVNO to scale their networks and provide a reliable service. This work aims to make use of its first of a kind dataset, spanning multiple countries and MNO, to provide a detailed characterization of GTP tunnels and devices. To this end, general statistics are used to describe the observed data traffic focusing on the distribution of the tunnel duration and volume as well as periodic device behavior. An approximate metric is introduced to analyze the periodicity and synchronicity of IoT devices. Lastly, we publish the data investigated in this work and provide a large scale dataset on the data usage behavior of IoT devices to interested researchers.
