Implementations of the present invention relate to a communication framework that is readily adaptable to a wide variety of resources intended to be accessible through a firewall. In general, a communication framework at a gateway server can provide a specific connection to a requested resource in accordance with a wide range of resource and/or network access policies. In one instance, a client requests a connection to a specific resource behind a firewall. The communication framework authenticates the connection, and quarantines the connection until determining, for example, that the client is using an appropriate resource features. If appropriately authenticated, the communication framework can pass control of the connection to an appropriately identified protocol plug-in processor, which facilitates a direct connection to the requested resource at an application layer of a communication stack.

La présente invention porte sur un cadre de communication facilement adaptable à une grande variété de ressources devant être accessibles par un pare-feu. En général, un cadre de communication, au niveau d'un serveur passerelle, peut fournir une connexion spécifique à une ressource de demandée conformément à une large gamme de politiques d'accès de ressource et/ou au réseau. Par exemple, un client demande une connexion à une ressource spécifique derrière un pare-feu. Le cadre de communication authentifie la connexion et la met en quarantaine jusqu'à ce qu'il détermine, par exemple, que le client utilise un élément de ressource approprié. S'il est correctement authentifié, le cadre de communication peut passer la commande de la connexion à un processeur de module d'extension de protocole identifié de manière appropriée, ce qui facilite une connexion directe à la ressource demandée au niveau d'une couche d'application d'une pile de communications.
