Systems and Methods of For Providing Multi-Mode Transport Layer Compression
First Claim
1. A method for communicating compressed and uncompressed content over a transport layer connection established by an appliance between a client and a server, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) establishing, by an appliance, a transport layer connection between a client and a server;
(b) receiving, by the appliance, a first response from the server to a first client request, and a second response from the server to a second client request, the first response and the second response comprising uncompressed data;
(c) transmitting, by the appliance, the first response to the client;
(d) identifying, by the appliance, a first type of compression from a plurality of compression types for compressing the second response to the client;
(d) compressing, by the appliance, the second response based on the identified compression type; and
(e) transmitting, by the appliance, the compressed second response to the client.

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for communicating compressed and uncompressed content over a transport layer connection established by an appliance between a client and a server. One method comprises the steps of: establishing, by an appliance, a transport layer connection between a client and a server, and receiving, by the appliance, a first response from the server to a first client request, and a second response from the server to a second client request The first response and the second response has uncompressed data. The method includes transmitting, by the appliance, the first response to the client. The appliance identifies first type of compression from a plurality of compression types for compressing the second response to the client, compresses the second response based on the identified compression type, and transmits the compressed second response to the client.
