Title:
PACKET DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM AND PACKET DISTRIBUTION METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/032709
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a technique for switching a session between a terminal and a network side
to a session using a plurality of peripheral terminals having respective functions,
by considering the load on the distribution side system and distributing a packet
to the plurality of peripheral terminals. The packet distribution system includes:
a terminal C having means for selecting a relay peripheral terminal A for relaying
a packet and a relay destination peripheral terminal B as a relay destination
of the relay peripheral terminal A and reporting identifiers of the peripheral
terminal B and the peripheral terminal A; and a communication device E having
header processing means for modifying a header destination of the packet transmitted
from a distribution node F in response to a request from a terminal C, to the address
of the peripheral terminal B according to the identifier encapsulating the packet,
and giving an external header including the address of the peripheral terminal
A. The peripheral terminal A includes: data acquisition means for decapsulating
the packet which has been encapsulated by the communication device E and acquiring
payload data; output means for outputting the acquired data to a predetermined
reproduction function; and relay processing means for relaying decapsulated
packet to the peripheral terminal B according to the header information contained
in the decapsulated packet.
