Abstract: Provided are methods of ensuring network continuity performed at a local gateway, a fixed gateway, and a network device. The method of ensuring network continuity performed at a local gateway includes establishing a tunnel with a fixed gateway serving as a relay between an Internet service server and the local gateway, and performing communication with the fixed gateway through the tunnel. Therefore, even when the type of an uplink signal received by a local gateway changes or the local gateway is in an uplink signal shadow area, a terminal connected to the local gateway can be provided with a seamless Internet service.

An operation method of a group and tunnel manager (GTM) for providing mobile VPN services includes receiving a first message for registering information of a VPN group from a gateway, generating tunnel information between the GTM and the gateway based on the first message, and transmitting a packet based on the tunnel information. Accordingly, a private address may be used even in a mobile VPN, and therefore a VPN site may be configured even in an environment where a public address is difficult to use, or a flexible VPN site may be configured.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for controlling seamless handover between heterogeneous networks based on IPv6 over IPv4 tunneling. When IPv6 service is provided using tunneling in an IPv4 based network environment, handover of a mobile terminal between different networks is achieved through switching of an active tunnel and a standby tunnel, and thus handover between different networks is facilitated and data loss is prevented to secure continuity of service provided to the mobile terminal even when the mobile terminal hands over to a heterogeneous network.

Abstract: In order to select a conference processing device to host a video conference between conference participation devices, a video conference system selects conference processing devices that are positioned most adjacent to each of conference participation devices that participate in the video conference as candidates for a conference processing device. The video conference system forms network topology based on candidate conference processing devices and conference participation devices, and aligns candidate conference processing devices based on preset alignment reference information. The video conference system selects one of the aligned candidate conference processing devices as an optimal conference processing device to host the video conference.

Abstract: A method for configuring a closed user network (CUN) using an IP tunneling mechanism and a CUN system are disclosed. In particular, disclosed is a technique of establishing a tunnel between a tunnel end edge device (TEED) and a control server by using an IP tunneling mechanism to allow terminals connected to the TEED to perform communications by using a closed IP, enabling the TEED to provide a network address translation (NAT) function so that the TEED can perform data forwarding like a general NAT, without performing tunneling on a destination IP outside the closed IP section, to perform communication, and allowing a terminal located in an area where the TEED is not provided to directly establish a tunnel with the control server by using a client software to thereby perform communications with a terminal or a server connected to the TEED by using the closed IP.

Abstract: The present invention relates to tunneling an IPv6 packet through an IPIv4 network. In using a tunneling method upon transmitting an IPv6 packet in an IP network, when destination nodes desired to be communicated are located within the same IPv6 prefix network, IPv6 prefix information is added for the management of a tunnel entry. Hence, tunneling information on terminals located within the same IPv6 prefix network can be managed as one tunnel entry. Accordingly, the time consumed when retrieving a tunnel entry can be reduced.

Abstract: Provided is a method for configuring a control tunnel and a direct tunnel in an IPv4 network-based IPv6 service providing system. To provide IPv6 service, when a random request terminal receives a tunnel response message from a control server by using service information downloaded from a portal server at the time of initialization, the request terminal configures a control tunnel with the control server, and is registered to the control server. The request terminal transmits and receives a direct tunnel request message and a direct tunnel response message with a counterpart terminal by using its terminal information learned during the control tunnel configuration, i.e., network position information and status information, thereby configuring a direct tunnel. Thus, IPv6 communication is made through IPv4 based IPv6 tunneling, so that IPv6 application services that are not yet widely used can easily come into wide use.
