Abstract

A method and apparatus for managing proxy autoconfiguration for a multihomed client. A client browser may employ a combined autoconfiguration module to split traffic based on a destination address of the traffic. The traffic may be split among at least two proxy servers. A proxy configuration manager may be employed to receive configuration information associated with each of the proxy servers. The proxy configuration manager enables the combined autoconfiguration module to be created based, in part, on the received configuration information. The proxy configuration manager further enables the client browser to split the traffic, based at least in part on the destination address.
