Abstract: A method and apparatus for analyzing IP data flows for the determination of an alternate routing path for network traffic between a known first network and a destination within an unknown second network on the Internet. An initial path between the first network and the destination exists. The IP address of the destination is determined and looked up in an Internet database. An alternative route to the destination is determined based on information from the Internet database in order to avoid an interconnecting transit network.
