See full text

A method is disclosed for establishing trusted communications with associations for communications between users on an Internet Protocol based computer network. The method entails the first user's SNIU determining the Internet Protocol (IP) address of a second user's SNIU on the computer network through the use of custom and ICMP Echo Request and Reply messages. The user's SNIUs exchange security related information needed to complete the establishment of a trusted association. The trusted association is maintained during all communications between the first user and the second user.
