1. A first proxy server for managing agent status, the first proxy server comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory coupled to the processor, wherein the memory has stored thereon instructions that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to;
receive status information from a plurality of second proxy servers, the second proxy servers being configured to receive and aggregate status information from a first agent station and a second agent station, respectively;
aggregate the status information from the second proxy servers; and
provide the aggregated status information to a subscribing device, wherein the second proxy servers are in a hierarchical relationship with respect to the first proxy server.
