Abstract
A first memory device receives session information associated with a session between a first network device and a user device. The first memory device outputs the session information associated with the session information. A second memory device receives the session information, associated with the session, from the first memory device. The second memory device receives a communication from the first memory device that the first network device is not functioning. The second memory device sends session information to a second network device, based on receiving the communication from the first network device that the first network device is not functioning, the second network device taking over the session from the first network device.
Claims25
A method comprising:
- establishing, by one or more devices, a session between a first network device and a user device;
- receiving, by the one or more devices and from the first network device, session information associated with the session;
- determining, by the one or more devices, that the first network device is not functioning;
- and
- forwarding, by the one or more devices and based on determining that the first network device is not functioning, the session information, associated with the session, to a second network device,
- the forwarding including:
- forwarding the session information to a memory device,
- the session information being forwarded from the memory device to the second network device;
- the user device being informed that the second network device has taken over the session from the first network device.
A system comprising:
- a first network device to:
- output session information associated with a session between the first network device and a user device;
- a first memory device to:
- receive the session information associated with the session between the first network device and the user device, and
- output the session information associated with the session;
- and
- a second memory device to:
- receive the session information, associated with the session, from the first memory device,
- receive a communication from the first memory device that the first network device is not functioning, after receiving the session information from the first memory device, and
- send the session information to a second network device, after receiving the communication from the first memory device that the first network device is not functioning,
- the second network device taking over the session from the first network device.
A system comprising:
- a first memory device to:
- receive session information associated with a session between a first network device and a user device, and
- output the session information associated with the session;
- and
- a second memory device to:
- receive the session information, associated with the session, from the first memory device,
- receive a communication from the first memory device that the first network device is not functioning,
- send session information to a second network device, based on receiving the communication from the first memory device that the first network device is not functioning,
- the second network device taking over the session from the first network device, and
- forward additional session information, related to a session between the second network device and the user device, to a third network device when the second network device stops functioning.
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a device, session information associated with a session between a first network device and a user device;
- determining, by the device, that the first network device is not functioning;
- sending, by the device and based on determining that the first network device is not functioning, the session information to a second network device,
- the second network device taking over the session from the first network device;
- and
- forwarding, by the device, the session information to a third network device when the second network device fails.
