ABSTRACT:
A non-broadcast multi-access network system comprises a plurality of network servers at least a specific one of which servers employs Next Hop Resolution Protocol for converting a network layer address into a corresponding data link layer address. The specific network server comprises a routing table access section (102) for accessing a routing table to refer to the routing table representative of a routing of a network layer. An NHRP server table (103) stores server address information of at least a particular one of the network servers and network layer address information of the network layer managed by the particular network server as an address set. An NHRP server processing section (101) is supplied with a Next Hop Resolution Protocol packet having a destination network layer address for accessing the NHRP server table to judge whether or not the destination network layer address exists in the address set. The NHRP server processing section transmits the Next Hop Resolution Protocol packet to the particular network server when the destination network layer address exists in the address set. The NHRP server processing section controls the routing table access section to make the routing table access section refer to the routing table when the destination network layer address does not exist in the address set.
