Abstract
A method to route a packet in a computer network in which the packet is transmitted via a router to a destination that is in a sleep state. The data packet causes a router to broadcast an address resolution request which in response awakens the destination from its sleep state. Upon awakening, the destination provokes a resolution of a destination address in which the address resolution is provoked without waiting for a reception of another address resolution request. When a second data packet is transmitted to the destination address, the destination address resolution is already resolved.
