Publication number: 20020159461Abstract: A translator for coupling a first network such as an internet protocol version 4 (IPv4) and a second network such as an internet protocol version 6 (IPv6) having different addressing architectures for IP addresses due to a difference in version or the like so as not to exhaust the IP addresses of one of the two networks, a network system using the translator, and a network coupling method therefor are provided. When a packet is transferred from the IPv6 network to the IPv4 network, the translator assigns any of a plurality of previously prepared IPv4 addresses to an IPv6 address stored in a source storing field of the IPv6 packet. The assigned address is stored in a source storing field of an IPv4 packet. A packet translation unit is provided for assigning the foregoing IPv6 address to an IPv4 address stored in a destination storing field of the IPv4 packet, when a packet is transferred from the IPv4 network to the IPv6 network, and for storing this address in a destination storing field of the IPv6 packet.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 20, 2002Publication date: October 31, 2002Inventors: Shinichi Hamamoto, Ken Watanabe, Kazuaki Tsuchiya, Naoya Ikeda

Publication number: 20020034163Abstract: A regulation apparatus for ATM cell delayvariation includes a variation regulating buffer for temporarily storing cells, a variation waiting timer for controlling a waiting time to read-out cells from the buffer, a read-out timer for controlling intervals at which cells are read from the buffer, a latest cell preservation memory for storing the latest cell transferred froma VPI/VCI and a selector for selecting a cell stored in the buffer to transfer the cell to a cell reproduction unit. The invention further includes a communication type discriminator for discriminating a communication type in a call set-up phase of a communication and for calculating a variation waiting time based on the discrimination to set the calculated variation waiting time to the variation waiting timer, and a dummy cell inserting circuit for inserting the last reaching cell as a dummy cell if a cell delay time cannot be regulated by the variation waiting time.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 17, 2001Publication date: March 21, 2002Inventors: Shinichi Hamamoto, Masashi Hiraiwa, Atsuo Hatono
