ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for improving network security through the manipulation of the apparent topology of the network. Such manipulation is accomplished by assigning multiple identifiers to nodes, using different destination identifiers for packets being sent to the same destination, and using source identifiers that do not correspond to the identifiers of the node sending the packets.
