  • System and method for providing access to a network with selective network address translation
    Patent number: 7127524
    Abstract: A system and method controls access to a network. The system and method intercepts communications received from, and responses and other communications to, devices on the network. Communications may be forwarded to their intended destination if the sending device has sufficient privileges to do so, or the communications may be handled by the system and method or forwarded to a different destination (e.g. a printer nearby the access point to which the user is communicating) using network address translation or redirection. Responses are received and stored by the system and method and may be forwarded to the device that sent the original communication, either directly or via a different device that requests the stored communications using a tunnel.
