An apparatus and a method for intercepting packets are provided to carry out packet processing, such as packet interception, under an IPv6 network environment just as a network manager intended, even though the address of a node within an internal network, a state of the node or an address prefix is changed. An apparatus for intercepting packets comprises a network address management part(210), a host address management part(220), a receiving part(230), an updating part(240), and a packet processing part(250). The network address management part(210) intercepts and manages the packets supplied to an internal network from an external network. The host address management part(220) intercepts or manages packets in transmitting packets to a host from an external network. The receiving part(230), in case a network address is changed into the IP address of a host in an internal network or a network prefix is changed, receives an IP address change notification or a network prefix change notification. The updating part(240) updates the network address management part(210) and the host address management part(220) when the receiving part(230) receives the IP address change notification or the network prefix change notification. In transmitting packets to an internal network from an external network, the packet processing part(250) intercepts packets if the validity of the network prefix expired. However, in case the network prefix is valid, the packet processing part(250) transmits packets on the basis of the updated network address management part(210). |
