SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NETWORK REDIRECTION

摘要

One embodiment of the present disclosure provides a system for identifying and directing requests for network services. During operation, the system receives at a network controller a Domain Name System (DNS) query from a client device. The system can determine if the DNS query includes a pre-defined DNS string. Further, if the DNS query includes the pre-defined DNS string, the system identifies a local portal associated with the pre-defined DNS string. Moreover, the system can direct the client device to the local portal.
