发明名称 Apparatus and method for transferring packets
摘要 When a first transfer-device in a first network receives, from a first communication-device in the first network, a packet addressed to a second communication-device in a second network, the first transfer-device requests a location management server to provide first information identifying a second transfer-device that is included in the second network and operable to transfer the packet to the second communication-device. The location management server notifies at least one of transfer-devices in the first network of the first information. After the transfer-devices in the first network have been notified of second information identifying a third transfer-device that is included in the first network and coupled to the second transfer-device via a route whose state is relatively favorable, the third transfer-device transfers the packet to the second transfer-device via a communication tunnel coupling the third transfer-device with the second transfer-device.

主权项 1. A method for transferring a packet, the method comprising: requesting, by a first of transfer devices, a location management server to provide first information identifying a second of the transfer devices in a second network when the first of the transfer devices in a first network receives a packet addressed to a second communication device in the second network from a first communication device in the first network, the second of the transfer devices being operable to transfer the packet to the second communication device in the second network, the location management server managing positions of the first communication device and the second communication device; notifying, by the location management server, at least one of the transfer devices in the first network of the first information; and transferring the packet by a third of the transfer devices to the second of the transfer devices, after the at least one of the transfer devices in the first network have been notified of second information identifying a third of the transfer devices that is included in the first network and that is coupled to the second of the transfer devices, via a route having a communication state more favorable than a communication state of the at least one of the transfer devices in the first network, the transferring of the packet being via a communication tunnel coupling the third of the transfer devices and the second of the transfer devices that serve as an ingress edge node and an egress edge node of the communication tunnel, respectively.
