Abstract

See full text

Certain embodiments of the present invention provide a method and system for improved static address translation. Certain embodiments include a method for address translation in a network, wherein the network includes a device associated with an identifier and assigned a dynamic address. The method includes matching the identifier for the device to a static address; creating an address mapping between the dynamic address assigned to the device and the static address; and transmitting data to and from the device using the address mapping. The method may also include transmitting a record indicating a presence of the device on the network, wherein the record includes the identifier for the device. Additionally, the method may include providing the address mapping to a router for routing data between the device and another entity. The method may automatically create the address mapping between the dynamic address and the static address, for example.
