A universal serial bus (USB) remote host control driver includes a connection to a local network, a network protocol stack and a memory for storing network addresses of USB device adapters and USB devices on the network. A USB device adapter has one or more USB ports, a network connection, a network address, and a network protocol stack. Together, the USB remote host control driver and the USB device adapter enable interaction between a network computer and peripheral USB devices on the network.

USB encapsulation for network transmission

A method and apparatus for network server recovery maintains an ongoing call by reconstructing its call context from a server-state attribute (SSA) that is generated by a first server, recorded in separate storage and retrieved by a second server in the event that a connection to the first server is interrupted. The SSA encodes call data that can be used to enable a server to maintain the call. The separate storage is preferably associated with a network access server (NAS) that does not itself use the SSA.
