Processing method for replying to a distributed hash table (DHT) message from a DHT client in order to allow the DHT client to fill his DHT routing table, comprising the following steps performed at a proxy processing agent having a plurality of nodes:
receiving from the DHT client a DHT request message;
generating at least one node identifier and associating each node identifier with an IP address and a port number, each IP address/port number combination corresponding with a node of said plurality of nodes;
sending a DHT response message containing said at least one node identifier and associated IP address and port to the DHT client;
storing in connection with said DHT client the at least one generated node identifier and associated IP address and port. |
