POLICY-BASED ROUTING IN A MULTI-HOMED COMPUTER
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented system that facilitates policy-based routing, comprising:
- a routing component that receives a credential associated with a data transfer and generates a route proposal; and
a policy enforcement component that determines whether the proposed route is permitted or blocked based on the credential and a policy, wherein the policy enforcement component provides information to the routing component as to whether the proposed route is permitted or blocked.

Abstract
Policy-based routing system and method for a multi-homed computer. Policy-based routing permits or blocks usage of system level route(s) based on user credentials and/or network application(s) associated with a data transfer. The credentials can include information associated with an application, a user, and the like. Optionally, one or more filter(s) can be configured over classifiable field(s), such as credential(s), information associated with a determined proposed route, to statically permit/block route usage and/or to invoke an inspection module (e.g., custom inspection routine) when the filter condition(s) are met.

15. A computer-implemented method of policy-based routing, comprising:
-
receiving a credential associated with a data transfer and information associated with a proposed route; determining whether the proposed route is permitted, based on the credential and a policy; and
,if the proposed first route is permitted, allowing the data transfer. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17)

18. A computer-implemented method of policy-based routing, comprising:
-
receiving credentials associated with a data transfer and information associated with a proposed route; determining whether a filter condition has been met; invoking a custom inspection module, if the filter condition has been met; determining whether the proposed route is permitted, based on the credentials and a policy, if the filter condition has been met. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
