Abstract: A boundary node router determines whether a received packet includes a SIP message and a REGISTER message, and, if so, adds its router identifier to a REGISTER message which includes a user identifier and a user terminal identifier, sent from a user terminal, and sends the message to a SIP server. The SIP server has a user management table which stores the user terminal identifier, the router identifier of a router which serves the user terminal, and a predetermined Quality of Service type, in association with each user identifier. The SIP server extracts a user identifier, a user terminal identifier, and a router identifier from a received REGISTER message, and updates the user terminal identifier and the router identifier corresponding to the extracted user identifier, to the extracted user terminal identifier and the extracted router identifier.

Abstract: A packet transfer apparatus having a plurality of protocol processing units 10 and a switch 20 for switching IP packets among the protocol processing units, wherein a protocol processing unit connected to an IPv4 network includes: input-side address translator CNv6 (I) for translating the address of an input packet to an IPv6 address; output-side address translator CNv4 (O) for translating, when an IPv6 packet is received from the switch, the address to an IPv4 address and transferring the resultant packet to the IPv4 network; and an operation mode controller for omitting address translation by the input-side address translator.
