ABSTRACT:
Network which accepts connections from a subscriber unit for service by a service provider. A plurality of nodes on the network are connected to different servers which provide the identical service. A subscriber unit's request for service is handled by the nearest node. A translation table is accessed by the LSO of the node to obtain the address of the nearest server based on a fuzzy address received as part of the request for service. The LSO of the node returns complete address data to the requesting subscriber unit for the nearest server capable of serving the request. The subscriber unit then issues a request for connection to the server using the acquired address information. The LSO of the receiving node creates a connection between a requesting subscriber unit and the addressed server.
