Abstract
A home node and a destination node, which are specified by node identifiers, acquire locators thereof and mapping of the node identifiers and the locators, prior to communication, and they are transmitted after the address of a packet specified by the node identifier is rewritten by the locator at the time of communication. Because roles of the node identifier and the locator are separated, the communication method is suitable for mobile communication and multi-homing. In addition, the communication method makes it possible to reduce use amount of global addresses, and thus solve an address exhaustion problem.
