OVERLAY NETWORK NODE

摘要

There is disclosed a technology which improves scalability in an overlay network system and which efficiently supplies a service with respect to a user, and according to the technology, for example, in a case where a mobile node (110) transmits an update message including a specific flow filtering rule to an HA (120) in order to receive a service concerning functions of multiple interfaces, the HA (120) interprets the flow filtering rule, specifies an HA 160 to transfer a data packet from CNs (180, 190), an HA (150) to transfer a data packet from the CN (190) and an HA (140) to transfer a data packet from a CN (1100), and selectively transmits to each HA a message including information useful for the respective HA.
