Abstract
In a client-server environment, a method and system are disclosed for granting transparency to the compulsory gateway of an IP network versus client applications run by the end-users connected on the IP network. When client applications have to access, on request of the end-users, server applications beyond the compulsory gateway this latter acts on behalf of them to access the requested remote resources eventually, relaying data between client and server applications. This is achieved without requiring any personalization on client end thus, guarantees that since gateway is becoming transparent to client applications all improvements and modifications brought to the IP network actually fully benefit to all end-users.
