Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods are provided for resolving Internet Protocol (IP) address conflicts using agents in the zero configuration network. Agent's originate at respective nodes on the zero configuration network. Each agent and each node logs a localized shared memory table (SMT) providing identifying information pertaining to other nodes on the network. When a sending node transmits an SMT to one or more target nodes on the network, it is analyzed by the target node to ascertain whether a localized IP address conflict exists involving the target node and a remote node. If it is deemed appropriate to resolve the conflict, the target node resolves the conflict by selecting a new IP address for itself.
