ABSTRACT:
An address resolution protocol technique enables an intermediate station of a heterogeneous network to dynamically assign an address to an end station for use in a communication session between the end station and other stations of the network. The end station initiates the session by issuing a novel address assignment request to the intermediate station. In response to the request, the intermediate station assigns the end station an address chosen from a pool of addresses allocated to the intermediate station. If the assigned address is unacceptable, the end station reissues the address assignment request to which the intermediate station allocates another address from the pool.
