Abstract
A method and apparatus for managing a data transmission in a network is provided, which has a client, a real server and a load-balancing node (virtual server). The load-balancing node includes a handshake executor for handling a security protocol to establish a handshake between a client and a server, and a communication executor for establishing a direct communication between the client and the server using a session information in respect to the established handshake. The handshake executor establishes the handshake with the client. When the handshake is established, the communication executor exports session information in respect to the established handshake. The client establishes TCP/IP connection with the server. The client and server communicate each other directly.
