Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
60 words
A dynamically-controllable network proxy comprising a parser module and a service provider module coupled to said parser module, said parser module including instructions for selectively invoking said service provider module in response to a command parsed from an external input received by said network proxy, said service provider module comprising instructions for performing a predetermined function at said network proxy.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
60 words
A dynamically-controllable network proxy comprising a parser module and a service provider module coupled to said parser module, said parser module including instructions for selectively invoking said service provider module in response to a command parsed from an external input received by said network proxy, said service provider module comprising instructions for performing a predetermined function at said network proxy.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
46 words
The network proxy of claim 1 , wherein said network proxy is arranged between a client and a server, said parser module further including instructions for selectively invoking said service provider module in response to a command parsed from a data object received from the server.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
28 words
The network proxy of claim 2 , wherein said service provider module comprises instructions for transcoding said data object prior to forwarding said data object to the client.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
19 words
The network proxy of claim 1 , wherein said service provider module comprises instructions for reconfiguring said network proxy.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
24 words
The network proxy of claim 4 , wherein said service provider module further comprises instructions for setting an operational parameter of said network proxy.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
15 words

Claim 8
Dependent Claim
45 words
The network proxy of claim 1 , wherein said network proxy is arranged between a client and a server, said parser module further including instructions for selectively invoking said service provider module in response to a command parsed from a request received from the client.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
54 words
The network proxy of claim 1 , wherein said network proxy is arranged between a client and a remote network device, said parser module further including instructions for selectively invoking said service provider module in response to a command parsed from a data object received by said network proxy from the remote network device.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
25 words
The network proxy of claim 1 , wherein said service provider module further comprises instructions for managing a log file used by said network proxy.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
23 words
The network proxy of claim 1 , wherein said service provider module further comprises instructions for obtaining status information from said network proxy.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
