Methods, machine-readable media, and apparatuses are disclosed for interfacing computer networks. According to one embodiment, a method for interfacing a first network using a first protocol with a second network using a second protocol can comprise receiving an event in the form of a first message from the first network, where the first message is encoded using the first protocol. The first message can be translated into a second message, where the second message is encoded using the second protocol. The second message can be transmitted to the second network. If a response is not received from the second network within a configurable interval, the event can be processed based upon at least one rule that is responsive to the event. A third message can then be transmitted to the first network, where the third message is responsive to the first message and is encoded in the first protocol.
