Abstract
Methods, apparatuses and systems directed to the application of network QoS policy to different data types multiplexed over a connection corresponding to a given session between a first host and a second host. In one implementation, the present invention includes a dual gateway architecture where a first gateway terminates the connection with a remote access client, demultiplexes the remote access session data stream into a plurality of separate streams for transmission to a second gateway. The second gateway re-multiplexes the separate data streams into a single remote access session data stream for transmission to a remote access server. The use of separate data streams between the first and second gateways allows for the application of individual policies on the components of the remote access session data flow. For example, a policy scheme can be configured that gives preference to mouse movements, transmitted in a first data stream, over printer traffic, transmitted in a second data stream. The present invention can also be applied to network application protocols, other than remote access protocols, that multiplex more than one 'virtual channel' containing different traffic types over a single transport layer connection.
