ABSTRACT:
A system and method to select a software distribution server to download content from a server to a client, and to execute content on the server for the client, is described. The system and method include a client able to couple to any of the regions of a multi-region network. The client queries a server system for an identification of network software distribution servers. The client and/or server system select the software distribution server according to criteria that include in one implementation the network location of the client and the software distribution servers. In one implementation, the network is a multi-LAN network and the client and/or server system select the software distribution server coupled to the same LAN as the client. In one implementation, the client queries a server for an identification of network management servers on the network, selects a network management server coupled to the same LAN as the client, and queries the selected network management server for an identification of a software distribution server.
