Method and system for communicating an information packet through multiple networks
First Claim
1. An information processing system, comprising:
- a first computing device for;
through a first network, receiving an information packet originating from a client;
in response to the information packet, identifying computing device that stores a data structure of a connection with the client;
if the identified computing device is the first computing device, performing an operation in response to the information packet; and
if the identified computing device is a second computing device, outputting the information packet through a second network to the second computing device for performing the operation in response to the information packet, such that the output information packet bypasses the first network.

Abstract
According to a first embodiment, through a first network, a first computing device receives an information packet originating from a client. In response to the information packet, the first computing device identifies a computing device that stores a data structure of a connection with the client. If the identified computing device is the first computing device, the first computing device performs an operation in response to the information packet. If the identified computing device is a second computing device the first computing device outputs the information packet through a second network to the second computing device, such that the output information packet bypasses the first network. The second computing device performs the operation in response to the information packet.
According to a second embodiment, through a first local area network, a first computing device receives an information packet from a global computer network. Through a second local area network, in response to at least the information packet and a state of at least one of the first computing device and a second computing device, the first computing device selectively outputs the information packet to the second computing device, such that the output information packet bypasses the first local area network.
