Abstract: In some embodiments, a computer-implemented method comprises: receiving, at a proxy server, a plurality of active communications connection counts of a plurality of active communications connections that were active within a time period; determining a top count of active communications connections selected from the plurality of active communications connection counts; for each count of the top counts of active communications connections: determining a relative percentage of pre-connected communications connections, having a particular connection type and included in the count, to be pre-connected by the proxy server and available; determining whether the relative percentage of the pre-connected communications connections of the particular connection type is already pre-connected by the proxy server and is available; and if not, pre-connecting one or more particular communications connections of the particular connection type until the relative percentage of the pre-connected communications connections of the

Abstract: The method for an automated IPv6/IPv4 fallback approach in proxy networks is presented. In some embodiments, the method comprises receiving, at a proxy server, a request from a client executing on a client computer for access to a target computer; determining identification-information of the client; determining an address pair including an IPv6 address and an IPv4 address of the proxy server; assigning the address pair to the identification-information of the client; establishing a first communications connection between the client computer and the proxy server using one of IP addresses included in the address pair, and a second communications connection between the proxy server and the target computer using one of IP addresses included in the address pair; and facilitating a network packet flow between the client computer and the target computer using the first communications connection and the second communications connection.
