Abstract
In the field of communications technology, a method and a system for forwarding data between private networks are provided, which can enable terminals in different private networks to securely communicate with each other by using private network addresses. The method includes the following steps. A Secure Socket Layer (SSL) tunnel to an SSL Virtual Private Network (VPN) device in another private network is established. Address allocation information of the another private network is received through the SSL tunnel. The address allocation information and a mapping relation between the address allocation information and a public network IP address of the SSL VPN device transmitting the address allocation information and a session ID of the SSL tunnel transmitting the address allocation information are saved. A data packet whose destination address belongs to the another private network is forwarded to the SSL VPN device of the private network to which the destination address belongs, according to the address allocation information and the mapping relation. Through the method, the SSL VPN device can resolve private network addresses of other private networks.
