ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides techniques to increase the efficiency of communication between computer systems. One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for communicating a first information item having a first data length of a plurality of data lengths, from a first device to a second device via a local area network. The first data length is determined based on a first data length restriction of the second device. Another embodiment enables a high-speed transfer of a large volume of data on a server to another server, without stopping the communication between the server and a client. This embodiment uses the limitation on data length of the destination system to limit the length of the data sent by the source system. In addition while standard length data is exchanged between client and server, extended length data is exchanged between servers.
