摘要:
In a computerized device, a technique for communicating with an external transmission control protocol device involves operating in a stateless manner. In particular, the technique includes providing an acknowledgment message to the external transmission control protocol device in response to a synchronization message from the external transmission control protocol device, receiving a request message for content from the external transmission control protocol device, and sending, to the external transmission control protocol device, a reply message having at least a portion of the content, regardless of whether the computerized device received an acknowledgment message from the external transmission control protocol device in response to the acknowledgment message provided by the computerized device to the external transmission control protocol device.

Mechanisms and techniques provide a system that operates in a data communications device such as a switch or a router to provide a technique for inserting data into packets associated with a communications session between a first and second computerized devices. The technique comprises receiving a first packet containing data being propagated from the first computerized device to the second computerized device in the communications session and inserting a first amount of extra data into the first packet to alter the size of the first packet and forwarding the first packet including the first amount of extra data to the second computerized device. By monitoring and adjusting sequence and acknowledgement information from with in the data communications device, data can be inserted into packets without disrupting connection state information maintained by and expected by each computerized device.

Mechanisms and techniques provide a system that operates in a data communications device such as a switch or a router to provide a technique for load balancing packets between computer systems based on extra data inserted in the packets. The system receives a message containing extra data. The extra data was inserted into the message by a second data communications device existing in a network coupling the first data communications device to a first computerized device that originated the message. The system identifies, based on the extra data inserted into the message, a second computerized device that is to process the message and forwards the message to the second computerized device for processing. The extra data can include demographic data that can be used to select a demographic server, and for selection of a specific server from a group of servers associated with the demographic server.

A URL re-writing system and method in a network examines and modifies HTML data and its embedded URLs. The re-writing system can be implemented in a router and can replace URLs found in the HTML data in order to accomplish more efficient routing for example to a close mirror site or for content routing. The re-writing system can also use URL replacement to insert important or emergency information to data received by users on a Web-based network.

Internet services are differentiated by including user-reflexive data with a user request. The user-reflexive data may specify a quality of service to be accorded the return data and also billing information to improve detail of bills for billed Internet services. The user-reflexive data is included with the user request and data transmission is adjusted accordingly. Alternatively, the user-reflexive data is sent out-of-band.

Mechanisms and techniques provide a data communications device for inserting an audio tag into a content page during a communications session between a first computerized device and a second computerized device. A data communications device receives a request for a content page from a first computerized device and transfers the request to a second computerized device. The data communications device receives the content page from the second computerized device in response to the request, inserts an audio tag within the content page, and adjusts a connection characteristic associated with the content page to maintain the communications session between the first computerized device and the second computerized device. The data communications device then transfers the content page having the inserted audio tag and modified connection characteristic to the first computerized device.

The invention is directed to techniques for managing access to data available from a data access device using a network switching protocol to manage content requests from clients. A data communications device receives a request for content from a client. The data communications device, such as a network switch, exchanges signals using the network switching protocol with one or more data access devices, such as a web cache. The data communications device can then select one data access device to provide the requested content to the client based, for example, on load balancing considerations. The data communications device sends a data transfer approval signal to the selected data access device. The selected data access device establishes a connection with the client using information, such as the client's network address, provided by the signals. The selected data access device then bypasses the data communications device and sends the requested content to the client. Using the network switching protocol, the data communications device can manage multiple, pipelined requests from the same client, while approving responses to the client from different data access devices, such as web caches and/or servers.

The invention is directed to methods and techniques in a communications device for delivering content. In particular the technique includes intercepting, from a requesting device, an initial request for initial content accessible from an initial content source and in response to intercepting the initial request, creating redirection information indicating an identity of secondary content to be accessed by the requesting device in addition to the initial content in the initial request and providing the redirection information to the requesting device, such that the requesting device accesses both the secondary content from the secondary content source as well as the initial content from the initial content source.
