In a data network system (31, 70, 36, 30, 10') and/or process for communications between endstations (15', 17) which are routed through an IP network (30, 31) precious and distinctive addresses, typically IP addresses are not permanently associated with each endstation, but rather are only transiently related to some relatively versatile endstations (15, 17). Precious IP addresses are collected, dispensed and assigned to versatile endstations from a subnetwork-based pool of IP addresses (24, 28) according to network call like cycle events. At the start and then at the end of any call between a versatile end station and any other end station, a network controller (20) will perform assignment/dispensation from, and then return to, a pool of unique IP addresses such that even a versatile endstation has a unique IP address for the duration of the call.
