Abstract: A traffic management device (TMD), system, and processor-readable storage medium are directed to securely transferring session credentials from a client-side traffic management device (TMD) to a second server-side TMD that replaces a first server-side TMD. In one embodiment, a client-side TMD and the first server-side TMD have copies of secret data associated with an encrypted session between a client device and a server device, including a session key. For any of a variety of reasons, the first server-side TMD is replaced with the second server-side TMD, which may not have the secret data. In response to a request to create an encrypted connection associated with the encrypted session, the client-side TMD encrypts the secret data using the server device's public key and transmits the encrypted secret data to the second server-side TMD.

Abstract: Securely transferring session credentials from a client-side traffic management device (TMD) to a second server-side TMD that replaces a first server-side TMD. A client-side TMD and the first server-side TMD have copies of secret data associated with an encrypted session between a client device and a server device. The first server-side TMD may be replaced with the second server-side TMD, which may not have the secret data. In response to a request to create an encrypted connection associated with the encrypted session, the client-side TMD encrypts the secret data using the server device's public key and transmits the encrypted secret data to the second server-side TMD. Using the server device's private key, the second server-side TMD decrypts the secret data and participates in the encrypted connection.

Abstract: A traffic management device (TMD) is situated between a one or more network devices providing jumbo network traffic and one or more device providing non-jumbo network traffic. The TMD is configured to employ TCP segmentation offload hardware within a Network Interface Card (NIC) at the level two/four layers of the OSI stack by rewriting maximum segment size (MSS) information during initial handshake operations, such that jumbo frames may be split into digestible size frames for a non-jumbo network communications.
