The invention relates to a method and a system for transmission of data packets. On a first wireless network interface of a first communication node, a first IP address is configured for a wireless bidirectional transmission of data packets between the first communication node and an IP-based network. A second wireless local network interface of the first communication node is configured for a bidirectional transmission of data packets via a local communication link between the first communication node and a second communication node. On the second communication node a second IP address is configured which is stored assigned to an IP home address or an identifier, or at least a first IP address is stored assigned to an IP home address or an identifier.

Method and system for transmission of data packets from an IP-based network via a first network node to a second network node

The invention relates to a method for a communication node with a plurality of network interfaces. Configured on the communication node is a virtual interface, which is accessible from the applications able to be executed on the communication node. A configuration module generates an identifier assigned to the communication node. The identifier is stored in an identifier table. The configuration module checks the communication node for available network interfaces and sets up a network interface table with the available network interfaces. At least one IP address of an available network interface is stored in the identifier table in a way assigned to the identifier, and a connection module connects at least one of the available network interfaces to the virtual interface.
