Abstract: The present disclosure is directed towards methods and systems for caching packet steering sessions for steering data packets between intermediary devices of a cluster of intermediary devices intermediary to a client and a plurality of servers. A first intermediary device receives a first data packet and determines, from a hash of a tuple of the first packet, a second intermediary device to which to steer the first packet. The first device stores, to a session for storing packet steering information, the identity of the second device and the tuple. The first device receives a second packet having a corresponding tuple that matches the tuple of the first packet and determines, based on a lookup for the session using the tuple of the second packet, that the second device is the intermediary device to which to steer the second packet. The first device steers the second packet to the second device.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed generally to systems and methods for changing an application layer transaction timeout to prevent Denial of Service attacks. A device intermediary to a client and a server may receive, via a transport layer connection between the device and the client, a packet of an application layer transaction. The device may increment an attack counter for the transport layer connection by a first predetermined amount responsive to a size of the packet being less than a predetermined fraction of a maximum segment size for the transport layer connection. The device may increment the attack counter by a second predetermined amount responsive to an inter-packet-delay between the packet and a previous packet being more than a predetermined multiplier of a round trip time. The device may change a timeout for the application layer transaction responsive to comparing the attack counter to a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A system and method for establishing a virtual private network (VPN) between a client and a private data communication network. An encrypted data communication session, such as a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) data communication session, is established between a gateway and the client over a public data communication network. The gateway then sends a programming component to the client for automatic installation and execution thereon. The programming component operates to intercept communications from client applications destined for resources on the private data communication network and to send the intercepted communications to the gateway via the encrypted data communication session instead of to the resources on the private data communication network.

Abstract: A system and method for establishing a virtual private network (VPN) between a client and a private data communication network. An encrypted data communication session, such as a—Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) data communication session, is established between a gateway and the client over a public data communication network. The gateway then sends a programming component to the client for automatic installation and execution thereon. The programming component operates to intercept communications from client applications destined for resources on the private data communication network and to send the intercepted communications to the gateway via the encrypted data communication session instead of to the resources on the private data communication network.
