INTER-LAN CONNECTOR AND INTER-LAN CONNECTION SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an inter-LAN connector and inter-LAN connection system where a load is relieved, limit on the number of connectable points is less and data are relayed at a high transfer rate and at a low cost. SOLUTION: The inter-LAN connector that relays data among pluralities of networks consists of a switching hub H, stores a virtual network address for each server being a device of relay destination, replies a MAC address of the server of the relay destination corresponding to the virtual network address when a medium access control MAC address of the virtual network address is requested and relays data not addressed to its server through bridge processing when receiving the data whose destination MAC address indicates other server.
