The communication method and communication apparatus according to the invention are capable of generating a packet having a header which includes at least data representing an identifier of a transmitting end point of a logical communication channel, data representing an identifier of a receiving end point of the logical communication channel, data representing an address corresponding to the identifier of the transmitting end point of the logical communication channel, data representing an address corresponding to the identifier of the receiving end point of the logical communication channel, data representing an IP address corresponding to an address of the transmitting end point of the logical communication channel, and data representing an IP address corresponding to an address of the receiving end point of the logical communication channel; and are capable of transmitting the packet thus generated. The inventive arrangements allow the initially established logical communication channel to remain intact and available even if a computing entity is moved from one computer to another or if a computer in which a computing entity resides is relocated within the network.
