TECHNIQUES FOR IN-BAND TOPOLOGY CONNECTIONS IN A PROXY

A system for adapting to topology changes in a proxy is described. The system includes a processor and a memory coupled to the processor and configured to provide the processor with instructions. The processor is configured to intercept a plurality of communications and match a communication signature for a topology update in a communication. The processor is further configured to identify topology update information in the communication and update listener(s) based on the topology update information. The processor also translates the topology update information and sends the translated topology information to a client.
