Abstract

Described herein are systems and methods for improving networked communication systems by transforming IP addresses. In particular, an intermediary device disposed in a network between a plurality of clients and a plurality of servers can receive a request for a service offered at a specified domain name. The appliance can also receive a DNS-resolved primary address for a server associated with the domain name, and transform the primary address to a secondary address for the server. The address transformation can be done by the intermediary to prevent service interruption between a client and server due, for example, to server maintenance.
