Patent ID: 7230944

Claim:
A wireless communication system enabling a device to transmit data via first and second routing switches to a second host computer associated with at least the second routing switch, subsequent to determining that a first host computer associated with the first and second routing switches cannot receive the data, said system comprising: a first routing switch, associated with the first host computer, receiving data from the device and, said first routing switch comprising: a first server for at least one of adding and deleting a radio frequency header respectively to and from the data; a second server, communicable with said first server, for reading a routing configuration of the device; a host router, communicable with said second server, for adding a routing header to the data; a protocol server communicable with at least said host router for adding a protocol header to the data compatible with the first host computer to which the data is transmitted; a second routing switch communicable with at least said first routing switch and the second host computer; and said first routing switch receiving the data from the device, reading by said second server a routing configuration of the device comprising routing data pertaining to the first host computer and the second host computer to which the device transmits data, adding a first routing header to the data for transmitting at least the data to the first host computer and, upon determining that said first host computer is unresponsive, transmitting at least the data to the second routing switch, said second routing switch adding a second routing header to the data for transmitting at least the data to the first host computer and, upon determining that the first host computer is unresponsive, adding a third routing header and transmitting at least the data to said second host computer.
