Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A network device receives, from a client device, a client request associated with a connection with a server device, where the client request identifies requested content. The network device determines connection information that identifies the connection with the server device, transmits, to a proxy server, a connection transfer request that identifies the connection information and the requested content, and receives, from the proxy server, an indication that the proxy server is capable of providing the requested content. Based on receiving the indication, the network device provides, from the proxy server to the client device, a response to the client request, and provides, from the proxy server and to the server device, information that causes the server device to terminate the connection. The network device may use a connection request transfer protocol to transmit the connection transfer request, and the client request may be an HTTP request.
