Abstract:
A system for optimizing network traffic is described. The system includes a primary appliance having a first handoff engine in an active state. The primary appliance is configured to receive from a first switch one of first data or a copy of first data to be provided to a second switch. The system also includes a secondary appliance having a second handoff engine in a passive state, where the secondary appliance is configured to receive from the first switch the other of the first data or the copy of the first data. The second handoff engine is configured to monitor state data provided by the first handoff engine, determine a condition of the first handoff engine using the state data and the other of the first data or the copy of first data, and based on the determination, provide instructions for the secondary appliance to provide the other of the first data or the copy of the first data to the second switch.

Claim (Index 10):
A method performed by an appliance having one or more processors and comprising:\n acquiring information indicating that a first handoff engine is in a passive state; receiving one of first data or a copy of first data from a first switch; processing the received first data or the copy of the first data; monitoring state data provided by a second handoff engine that is in an active state, with the state data corresponding to the other of the first data or the copy of the first data having been processed by the second handoff engine; determining a functional condition of the second handoff engine by comparing the state data to the processed first data or the processed copy of the first data; and providing the other of the processed first data or the processed copy of the first data to a second switch based on the determination.
