Server-side protocol configuration of accessing clients

摘要

A method for configuring a client-side communications protocol stack includes a mapping to be consulted to determine a set of client-side protocol stack components which correspond to a set of protocol stack components in a server side protocol stack instance. Subsequently, a listing can be created of the determined set of client-side protocol stack components. Finally, the listing can be published for access by externally disposed client computing processes. The listing can be reversed. Also, the consulting step further can include determining at least one attribute to be applied to at least one of the client-side protocol stack components when enabling a client-side protocol stack to interoperate with the server-side protocol stack instance.

1. An inter-process communications protocol configuration computer hardware system comprising:
a mapping of server-side protocol stack components in a server-side protocol stack to corresponding client-side protocol stack components; a listing of corresponding ones of said server-side protocol stack components and said client-side protocol stack components created based upon said mapping; and, a publishable interface to said listing.
