Abstract

Disclosed are system and method for selecting a connection mode between a client device and a server device. An example method includes: receiving, by a processor of a gateway device deployed within a communication network, a request from a client device for accessing a desired server device; detecting locations of the client device and the desired server device; selecting a connection mode for the client device based on the locations of the client device and the desired server, the connection mode comprising at least one of a direct connection and an indirect connection via the gateway device between the client and the desired server devices; when the direct connection mode is selected, informing the client device to access the desired server device directly; and when the indirect connection mode is selected, establishing, by the gateway device, a proxy connection between the client and the desired server devices.
