APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR REDIRECTING UNRESOLVABLE ADDRESSES USING A LOCAL CARE-OF IP ADDRESS

摘要

A method of redirecting a browser in a network. A fake IP address is provided to the browser in response to an attempt to resolve a non-resolvable DNS query by the browser for a destination address. The method also includes detecting a web request by the browser sent to the fake IP address, and redirecting the browser to a redirect address based on the detecting. Web requests sent to valid IP addresses may also be detected and redirected.
