  • Patent number: 7535896
    Abstract: The routing control system 100 according to the present invention comprises a control server 1 as the control system, and routers 10-60 as the transfer system. The control server 1 receives the temporary routing control table which is transmitted from the routers 10-60, and stores this temporary routing control table in the routing control table DB 6 as the routing control table of the router which is the transmission source. This routing control table is updated as needed when a predetermined time has elapsed from the previous update. The control server 1 refers to the data in the routing control table DB 6 constructed in this way, and performs the routing control of packets which pass through each router 10-60 on the network.

  • Patent number: 7526569
    Abstract: The problems of an additional load to an AR having the function of transferring a packet, a BR functioning as a border relay device, and an address management server, a packet loss due to an unnecessary inquiry to the management server, an increasing delay of a packet transfer, etc. can be reduced. According to the address identification information for identification of the type of an address, routers determine to which type the address assigned to a given packet belongs, a terminal identification address for identification of a source terminal and a destination terminal, a packet transfer address for transfer of the packet to another router, or an address requiring no address conversion. Thus, an address conversion network connected to an external IP network can be realized, an increased load by an inquiry about an erroneous address, etc. and a packet loss and delay due to an unnecessary inquiry can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 7417969
    Abstract: Determining a cross over router on the occasion of a migration of a mobile terminal connected to a network during communication in the network. A path control device receives path control information from each router in the network and stores the information as a path control table. Then, a pre-migration path between the mobile terminal and the correspondent terminal is recognized and, on the occasion of a migration of a mobile terminal, the path control device predicts a post-migration path between the mobile terminal and the correspondent terminal. The path control device then compares the pre-migration path and the post-migration path to derive as a common part, and a router closest to the mobile terminal in the common part is determined as a cross over router.

  • Patent number: 7324490
    Abstract: A relay device acquires and stores address binding information indicating correspondence between a static communication address and a dynamic communication address of a mobile terminal which is linked to the relay device. The relay device also stores address binding information of other mobile terminals to which packets are sent from the source terminal. A management server stores the address binding information pertaining to the source terminal, and also stores the communication status information of the other mobile terminals with which the terminal is communicating. When the terminal terminates communication, the relay device and the server delete the address binding information pertaining to the source terminal by cooperating with each other.

  • Publication number: 20070113075
    Abstract: A method allows a mobile router that uses the Mobile Internet Protocol version 6 (Mobile IPv6) for mobility management to optimize routing by securely sending binding update messages directly to correspondent nodes on behalf of each mobile network node, even if the node does not perform Mobile IPv6 functions. Since the network address for each mobile network node is generated from the public keys of both the mobile network node and the mobile router, the mobile router is authorized to use the generated address on behalf of the mobile network node. If the mobile router changes its point of attachment, it sends signed binding update messages to the correspondent nodes of the mobile network nodes. When the correspondent nodes verify the binding update message and the correct public keys, the correspondent nodes can communicate with the mobile network node without going through the home agent. Therefore, secure proxy binding update messages can be sent from the mobile router.
