A system and method for generating and remotely installing a private secure and auditable network is provided. Node identification, link, and application information is input into a template. A generator generates components using the information in the template and the components are remotely installed using an installation server. The components include agent modules which are each installed at predetermined target site and establish communication with the installation server to facilitate the download of other components, including application software and configuration files. Each node can only be installed once and is specific to a predetermined target site. For each link, a unique pair of keys is generated in a form which is not human readable, each key corresponds to a different direction of communication over the link. Data transmitted between nodes is encrypted using public-private key pairs. At least one monitor node manages the security of the network, strobes keys, and may take nodes out of the network in the event of a security violation. In such a case, one or more nodes, or the entire network, may be regenerated and installed anew. Throughout the generation and installation a plurality of verifications, authorizations, and password entries may be required by independent groups to arrive at the network. Preferably, the installation is audited by several groups, and the overall operation may be audited by a second monitor node to detect the presence of an interposed “pirate” node.

A system and associated method for optimizing routing of data traffic for a host virtual machine. The host virtual machine communicates with an Internet Protocol (IP) network via a default gateway of a source site prior to migration. A migration service process migrates the host virtual machine from the source site to a target site, which is geographically remote from the source site and consequently changes routing efficiency of the data traffic between the host virtual machine and the IP network. The migration service process reconfigures routing parameters of the migrated host virtual machine for data traffic going out to the IP network from the host virtual machine. The migration service process examines the IP network configurability and subsequently reconfigures the IP network for inbound data traffic coming into the migrated host virtual machine from the IP network when available.

A system and method for creating a customized portal environment website that retrieves content from external websites and presents this content with a consistent and controlled look and feel. Three features of this invention that enable the consistent look and feel are clipping, scrubbing and link behavior tools. The clipping tool identifies the structure of clipped pages. The structure of the clipped content is stored in a database in the system. As the system dynamically retrieves clipped pages from the target site, the system compares the structure of the retrieved clip to the anticipated, stored structure of the clip. If the two structures match, the clipped page is rendered in the look and feel of the custom website. If the structures do not match, the dynamically clipped page is displayed in a new separate window. The scrubbing feature of the present invention allows the designer of the website to define a global structure for all pages that are retrieved from a particular domain. If a requested page does not conform to the defined structure, the system opens a new window for the page. The link behavior tool of the present invention traps a request for the embedded link upon it's execution and redirecting the request to a page that has already been approved and clipped or by opening a new window for the embedded link.

The present invention routes an application request to at least one of a plurality of sites in a packet data network. Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) messages that establish initial dialogs and SIP messages that are stand-alone requests are sent from a call session control function system to a SIP application load distribution system. The SIP application load distribution system routes a SIP message to at least one destination site, based at least in part on user-defined local state data and a user-defined application load distribution policy. Local state data is sent from a plurality of sites to an application management and health checking system. Local state data may be sent autonomously from the plurality of sites. Local state data may also be sent from the plurality of sites in response to a request issued by the application management and health checking system.

The invention relates to data communications, more particularly to a protocol encapsulation technique which captures the time between frames at a transmitting site for comparison with an idle counter at a receiving site. At the originating site, the time between successive frames in the native protocol is encoded in an interframe time field associated with each respective frame, before the time encoded frame is mapped into the protocol associated with the transport medium. At the destination site, the framing associated with the transport medium is removed to reveal the interframe time field. The value contained in this field is compared with the value of an idle counter running at the native protocol rate. When the idle count is greater than or equal to the encoded inter-frame time, the data contained in the frame is then delivered to the client.
