Methods and systems for joining a real-time session of presentation layer protocol data
Methods and systems directed to joining a real-time user session of presentation layer protocol data. The methods describe a user session receiving a presentation layer protocol data stream, wherein the user session comprises a single presentation layer protocol stack. The protocol stack sending a request to a virtual channel to reinitialize. The virtual channel processing an existing request until the request to reinitialize is encountered. The protocol stack modifying the presentation layer protocol data stream to contain a marker. The systems describe a single presentation layer protocol stack. The protocol stack includes a receiver, a virtual channel, and a rollover agent. The receiver receives a presentation layer protocol data stream and receives a message initiating reinitialization. The virtual channel processes a request. The rollover agent sends to the virtual channel a request to reinitialize and modifies the presentation layer protocol data stream to contain a marker.
1. A method for joining a real-time user session of presentation layer protocol data, the method comprising:
(a) receiving, by a user session executing on a server, a presentation layer protocol data stream from a client agent executing on a client computing device, wherein the user session comprises a single presentation layer protocol stack;
(b) sending, by the single presentation layer protocol stack, to a virtual channel module stored in memory, a request to reinitialize;
(c) processing, by the virtual channel module stored in memory and executed by a processing circuit, an existing request until the request to reinitialize is encountered; and
(d) modifying, by the single presentation layer protocol stack, the presentation layer protocol data stream to contain a marker; and
(e) resetting, by the single presentation layer protocol stack, a virtual channel state machine to an original state in response to the request to reinitialize; wherein the request to reinitialize the virtual channel is sent in response to receiving a request to initiate a rollover from a shadowing agent service executing on the server; and
(f) receiving, by the user session, a second presentation layer protocol data stream from a shadowing agent service executing on a server.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising extracting, by the single presentation layer protocol stack, the presentation layer protocol data stream to a buffer.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising pausing, by the virtual channel module stored in memory, the existing request until after the request to reinitialize is processed.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, by the single presentation layer protocol stack, the request to initiate a rollover responsive to a connection request from a second computing device.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, by the single presentation layer protocol stack, the request to initiate a rollover responsive to a durational threshold being met.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, by the single presentation layer protocol stack, the request to initiate a rollover responsive to a file size threshold being met.
7. A system for joining a real-time user session of presentation layer protocol data comprising:
a single presentation layer protocol stack contained within the real-time user session executing on a server comprising:
a receiver module stored in memory and executed by a processing circuit to:
receive a presentation layer protocol data stream from a client agent executing on a client computing device;
a virtual channel module stored in memory, and executed by a processing circuit to:
processes a request; and
a rollover agent module stored in memory, and executed by a processing circuit to:
send to the virtual channel a request to reinitialize; and
modify the presentation layer protocol data stream to contain a marker;
wherein the request to reinitialize the virtual channel is sent in response to receiving a request to initiate a rollover from a shadowing agent service executing on the server using a processing circuit and the single presentation layer protocol stack resets a virtual channel state machine to an original state in response to the request to reinitialize and wherein the user session receives a second presentation layer protocol data stream from a shadowing agent service executing on a server.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the single presentation layer protocol stack extracts the presentation layer protocol data stream to a buffer.
9. The system of claim 7 , wherein the virtual channel module pauses the existing request until after the request to reinitialize is processed.
10. The system of claim 7 , wherein the single presentation layer protocol stack receives the request to initiate a rollover responsive to a connection request from a second computing device.
11. The system of claim 7 , wherein the single presentation layer protocol stack receives the request to initiate a rollover responsive to a durational threshold being met.
12. The system of claim 7 , wherein the single presentation layer protocol stack receives the request to initiate a rollover responsive to a file size threshold being met.
