1. A method comprising:

  • receiving a first data packet including an unenhanced payload from a first network device;

    modifying a portion of the first data packet, the portion being outside the unenhanced payload of the first data packet, to indicate that a first optimization device is capable of enhanced communication;

    sending the modified first data packet from the first optimization device to an endpoint device;

    receiving an indication of a capability of enhanced payload processing;

    generating an enhanced payload of a second data packet addressed to the endpoint device based on the indication;

    sending the second data packet including the enhanced payload to the endpoint device;

    sending a third data packet from the first optimization device to an endpoint device, the third data packet having a modified portion outside of a payload;

    receiving an acknowledgement of the third data packet that does not indicate a capability of enhanced payload processing;

    receiving a fourth data packet with an unenhanced payload; and

    sending the fourth data packet to the endpoint device.
