Abstract
In aspects, a gateway that sits between a single network protocol client and a server receives a request from the client for a network address of the server. The gateway issues multiple name resolution requests and waits for a first response. Depending on various factors, the gateway determines whether or not to wait for additional responses before responding to the client. If needed, the gateway may obtain an address of a translating device to assist the client in communicating with the server.
