Distributed frame transmission method for a local client in a Local switched Network, the method comprises the steps of: determining a number of frame transmission time slots based on the number of local clients in the Network and a Time Distribution Window (TDW) and establishing an Identity Number, ID, of a specific receiving client and allocating a specific frame transmission time slot among said number of frame transmission time slots for transmitting frames to said specific receiving client from a buffer queue dedicated to said specific receiving client based on an ID of the local client, the established ID of said receiving client and the total number of local clients in the Local switched Network.

Method for allocating frame transmission time slots

Apparatus for operating as a server node within a private IP network to host or aggregate a plurality of resources. The apparatus comprises an address controller for obtaining a private IP network IP address, for allocating a server node port number to said resources, and for causing the server node to listen on that server node port. A resource configurator is provided for determining for each of said resources a resource private Uniform Resource Identifier, URI, or URI path together with resource metadata, and for sending to a gateway, interconnecting the private IP network with a public IP network, an advertisement containing said private URI or URI path and respective resource metadata. The apparatus further comprises a resource request receiver for receiving requests at said server node port, for identifying private URIs or URI paths included within the requests, and for delivering resources corresponding to said URI or URI paths.

Enabling external access to multiple services on a local server

A method of allowing a data connection between a first node attached to a private IP network and a second node external to the private IP network and connected to a public IP network. The method comprises allocating a private network IP address, a hostname, and a service name to said first node, the service name associated with a service provided by the first node. A gateway allocates a unique public network side port number to the first node. A mapping between the private network IP address and public network side port is included in a connection table. Records are installed in a Domain Name System of the public IP network that include: a service record defining said hostname and public network side port number as the location for said service name; and an address record defining a public IP address of said gateway as the location for said hostname.
