ABSTRACT:
A gateway module is provided for connecting multiple networks. A connection set up module is provided. The connection set up module is configured to set up a transport layer connection between two correspondent nodes in first and second wire networks in divided forms of first and second connections. The first and second connections are in a transport layer protocol suitable for communications with correspondent nodes in the first and second wire networks. A control module controls the connection set up module by determining whether or not to carry out a connection set up by the connection set up module. The connection set up is made according to information content of a packet. The packet contains a transport layer protocol data unit, from a correspondent node in the second network, that requests a set up of the transport layer connection between the first and second networks.
