Abstract
A method of registering a new node in a network and a method of searching for a floating Internet Protocol (IP) address through a distributed network are provided. The method of searching for the floating IP address may include receiving, by a representative node of a head network ring, from an external node, a message comprising an Identification (ID) of a target node, determining whether the ID of the target node is registered in the head network ring, based on a ring information table, and transferring the message to a representative node of a child ring having an address range of the target node among child rings, when the ID of the target node is not registered in the head network ring.
