Abstract
Methods and systems include establishing a connection between two agents, storing a transaction header for data packets being transmitted from one agent to the other, transmitting the packets, updating the transaction header after successful transmission of one or more packets, and re-transmitting the updated transaction header when a disconnect event occurs. The re-transmission of the updated transaction header allows for an efficient re-start or re-connect between the agents of a previously disconnected transmission in a computer network system.
