  • Systems and methods for resolving distributed network address conflicts
    Patent number: 10673812
    Abstract: A network translation (NT) computing device generates a routing table for a global network including a plurality of local networks. Each local network is associated with a local network identifier of the routing table and includes at least one network-addressable (NA) computing device. The NT computing device stores the routing table in a routing database and receives a data packet having a recipient address from a first local network. The recipient address includes a local network identifier associated with a second local network and an internet protocol (IP) address for a recipient NA computing device within the second local network. The NT computing device extracts the local network identifier from the recipient address, compares the local network identifier to the routing table, and transmits the data packet with the IP address to the second local network to be transmitted to the recipient NA computing device based on the comparison.
