ABSTRACT:
An apparatus (110, 101), method, system (100) and system method provide for distributed internetwork routing of information in a communication system (100). The communication system (100) is characterized by a topology having a primary node connected to a first network, such as the Internet, and connected via an intermediate network to a mulitplicity of secondary nodes, which are further connected via a secondary network to a plurality of terminals, such as personal computers. The apparatus (110, 101), method, system and system method provide for routing of information between the primary node and the terminals independently of and transparently to any internetwork address of a secondary node. The apparatus (110, 101), method, system and system method conserve internetwork addresses by utilizing internetwork addresses only for a primary node and for terminals.
