accept work requests coming from the http server 102 the http server 102 then performs authentication to ensure a successful connection at block 208 if the authentication succeeds the http server 102 then waits for a response at block 212 if the authentication fails a failure message is provided block 210 and the http server 102 loops back to the original starting point block 200 the http server 102 does not proceed until a successful authentication is registered as noted above once a successful authentication is accepted the http server 102 waits for a response at block 212 and then determines whether there is a timeout at block 214 if there is a timeout the http server 102 then determines whether the http reply is received at block 218 if there is no timeout the connection is closed block 216 and the system loops back to the step illustrated at block 202 if the http reply is not received the process also loops back to the step illustrated at block 202 if a reply is received the http server 102 unpacks the embedded http request at block 220 and processes the request at block 222 the application server 100 ensures that the request is coming from a valid client.
