Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO2005009102

Kind Code:

A3

Abstract:

An improved method is provided for routing data packets in a packet-switched network. Data packets are routed to or from network devices residing in a private network by using hierarchical network addressing information which is embedded into the options field of an IP packet header. The proposed framework is compatible with conventional data routing protocols as well as supports applications requiring peer-to-peer communication.
