| 20100260203 | TUNNELING IPv6 PACKET THROUGH IPv4 NETWORK USING A TUNNEL ENTRY BASED ON IPv6 PREFIX AND TUNNELING IPv4 PACKET USING A TUNNEL ENTRY BASED ON IPv4 PREFIX - The present invention relates to tunneling an IPv6 packet through an IPv4 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. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20100262825 | SECURITY METHOD OF MOBILE INTERNET PROTOCOL BASED SERVER - A security method in a server-based mobile IP system is provided. Specifically, in the security method, general data is securely exchanged in addition to a control message that is exchanged between a mobile node and a server or between mobile nodes. Specifically, provided is a method of securely exchanging data by using a mobile node including an mPAK execution module generating necessary keys by exchanging key information with the server while performing a mutual authentication process and negotiating the security policy; and a security module setting a security policy that is negotiated with the corresponding node and applying the security policy to data according to the set security policy when transmitting the data. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20100272016 | METHOD FOR SUPPORTING TRANSPORT NETWORK INDEPENDENT IP MOBILITY IN MOBILE TERMINAL AND SYSTEM THEREOF - A method and system for supporting Internet protocol (IP) mobility independently of the IP version of a transport network are provided. The method includes providing a mobility control apparatus, which maps the home addresses of a plurality of mobile terminals, including first and second mobile terminals, and the Care-of-Addresses (CoAs) of the mobile terminals, and setting a first control tunnel between the mobility control apparatus and the first mobile terminal, the care-of-addresses varying from one transport network to another transport network; setting a second control tunnel between the mobility control apparatus and the second mobile terminal; and enabling the first and second mobile terminals to exchange a data packet with each other through the first and second control tunnels. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20110069606 | COMMUNICATION NODE AND METHOD OF PROCESSING COMMUNICATION FAULT THEREOF - A communication node detects a communication fault thereof, and when a communication fault is detected, the communication node determines whether the communication node is included in a transmission path of a data packet with reference to a routing table and transmits the stored communication fault notification message to peripheral communication nodes. | 03-24-2011 |
| 20110082941 | METHOD OF PROVIDING DIRECT COMMUNICATION IN INTERNET PROTOCOL NETWORK - In order for a peer node to perform direct communication with a correspondent peer node in an Internet protocol network, the peer node receives a virtual address of the correspondent peer node from a server, and then when the peer node can directly set a tunnel with the correspondent peer node, the peer node sets a tunnel with the correspondent peer node, and when the peer node cannot directly set a tunnel with the correspondent peer node, the peer node sets a tunnel with a tunnel repeater. Thereafter, the peer node connects a virtual address of the correspondent peer node as route information to the tunnel. Thereby, a packet using a virtual address of the correspondent peer node as a destination is transmitted to the correspondent peer node through a predetermined tunnel. | 04-07-2011 |
| 20110085552 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FORMING VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORK - Technology for forming a virtual private network (VPN) is provided. A VPN gateway that supports mobility with a connection node having a virtual home address (HoA) and a care of address (CoA) includes a mobility support unit, a data security unit, and a virtual address converter. When a packet is transferred from the connection node, the mobility support unit sustains a binding relationship between a home address (HoA) of the connection node and the changed CoA, and processes a mobility tunnel for the packet, thereby generating a first conversion packet. The data security unit performs a security test of the first conversion packet. The virtual address converter converts the HoA of the connection node, which is a source address of the first conversion packet in which the security test is complete, to a private network internal address that can be used in the VPN, thereby generating a second conversion packet. | 04-14-2011 |
| 20110270996 | METHOD FOR CONFIGURING CLOSED USER NETWORK USING IP TUNNELING MECHANISM AND CLOSED USER NETWORK SYSTEM - 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. | 11-03-2011 |
| 20120014350 | APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING SEAMLESS HANDOVER BETWEEN HETEROGENEOUS NETWORKS BASED ON IPV6 OVER IPV4 TUNNELING MECHANISM - 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. | 01-19-2012 |
