Abstract: A method of network communication and a network gateway are disclosed. The method and gateway operate between a secure network and remote clients by way of an intermediate transport network, such as the Internet. The remote clients connect through a NAT router so share a common source address on the intermediate transport network. In the secure network, the method analyses packets received from a remote client to identify packets that start a new secure communication session. Then, the method assigns a session-unique address and port to the new secure communication session. Subsequent packets are translated in the secure communication session by exchanging the source address with the local session address. Thus, the secure network perceived each session as originating from a distinct address and port, whereby several such sessions can coexist simultaneously.
