Ultimately, this amounts to an endpoint implementation where the client endpoint and the server endpoint have a conversation through a single, communications socket which allows for the server to ask the client to make a new connection. A predominate issue with this type of problem, is that the server will end up with many, idle socket connections from each client, which can create resource issues if not properly administrated.
