Abstract:
A method and apparatus for routing a plurality of session packets across a network toward a destination modifies each packet to include a sequence number that is different from the sequence number of other packets in the plurality of packets. Accordingly, at this point, each of the plurality of packets is transformed into a corresponding plurality of processed packets. The method also duplicates the plurality of processed packets to produce a corresponding plurality of duplicated packets. Next, the method forwards the plurality of processed packets toward the destination using a first stateful path through the network, and correspondingly forwards the plurality of duplicated packets toward the destination using a second stateful path through the network. In preferred embodiments, the first stateful path is different from the second stateful path. For example, the two paths may be entirely distinct in that they share no common intermediary elements.

Claim (Index 15):
A routing device for routing a plurality of packets across an IP network toward a destination, the plurality of packets being a part of a session, the routing device comprising:\n a packet modifier configured to modify the plurality of packets to include a sequence number that is different from the sequence number of other packets in the plurality of packets, the plurality of packets being transformed into a corresponding plurality of processed packets; memory storing the plurality of processed packets; a packet duplicator operatively coupled with the memory, the packet duplicator being configured to retrieve the plurality of processed packets from memory and duplicate the plurality of processed packets to produce a corresponding plurality of duplicated packets; and an output operatively coupled with the packet duplicator, the output being configured to forward the plurality of processed packets toward the destination using a first stateful path through the network, the output being configured to forward the plurality of duplicated packets toward the destination using a second stateful path through the network, the first stateful path being different from the second stateful path.
