ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for multiplexed data communication tunneling channels. Embodiments of the tunneling mechanism may provide tunnel sockets between networking environments that allow a node in one networking environment to interconnect with network resources in other networking environments. A tunnel socket is a proxy or bridge across a peer-to-peer network between different networking environments. Using the tunneling mechanism, descriptions of network resources in one format may be translated to advertisements in a uniform description format, which may then be published on the network. The published advertisements may be discovered by entities in other networking environments and translated into formats of the other networking environments for access by the entities. To the entities, the resources appear to be in their local networking environment.
