ABSTRACT:
A first machine communicates with a second machine, using a protocol that sends the first machine's network configuration data in application data sent to the second machine, through a translating access point which translates network traffic from the first machine so as to originate from the access point. A network configuration server provides to the first machine network configuration data not subject to translation by the access point, which is sent to the second machine in the application data. The second machine communicates with the provided network configuration, and this communication is in turn made available to the first machine.
