ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a method for transmitting packets in a network comprising at least a first sub-network and a second sub-network connected through a transparent communication link, said link comprising at least a first interface device connected to the first sub-network and a second interface device connected to the second sub-network. The method comprises the steps of:attributing a first set of addresses to the interface devices on the communication link;attributing a second set of addresses to nodes connected to the sub-networks, the attribution of the second set being done independently from the attribution of the first set;checking whether there appears a conflict between an address of the first set and an address of the second set, and in the affirmative:changing the conflicting address of the first set to a non conflicting address.The invention also concerns a device for implementing the method as well as a method for detecting and transmitting packets to be transmitted over the link.
