Abstract: A Protocol Fax Box (PFB) receives information, determines destinations for the information, and converts the information protocol and data, if necessary, for transmission to the destinations. The PFB has plural interfaces from which it receives and sends data. Upon receiving information on one of its interfaces, the PFB creates a set of objects for handling the transfer of the information from the incoming interface to an outgoing, or destination, interface. A source object handles the incoming communication, a session object handles destination determination, and a destination object handles protocol conversion from the source interface to the destination interface. The session object also logs information regarding each session. The PFB may use a client server model to download information as needed from a network, or have processing be performed on the network.

Abstract translation: 协议传真箱（PFB）接收信息，确定信息的目的地，并根据需要转换信息协议和数据，以传输到目的地。 PFB有多个接口从中接收和发送数据。 在接收到其一个接口上的信息时，PFB创建一组对象，用于处理将信息从入站接口传送到传出或目的地接口。 源对象处理传入通信，会话对象处理目标确定，目标对象处理从源接口到目标接口的协议转换。 会话对象还记录有关每个会话的信息。 PFB可以使用客户端服务器模型根据需要从网络下载信息，或者在网络上执行处理。
