Methods and systems consistent with the present invention provide a Supernet, a private network constructed out of components from a public-network infrastructure. Supernet nodes can be located on virtually any device in the public network (e.g., the Internet), and both their communication and utilization of resources occur in a secure manner by providing for anonymous communications within the network through addressing. As a result, the users of a Supernet benefit from their network infrastructure being maintained for them as part of the public-network infrastructure, while the level of security they receive is similar to that of a private network. Additionally, the nodes of the Supernet are not geographically restricted in that they can be connected to the Supernet from virtually any portal to the Internet in the world. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Accordingly, systems and methods consistent with the present invention substantially obviate one or more of the problems due to limitations, shortcomings, and disadvantages of the related art by providing for a network that allows secure communications between nodes allowed access to the network through the use of key management.
In accordance with the present invention, as embodied and broadly described herein, a system and method is provided in a public network having a network infrastructure that is used by a private network over which a plurality of nodes communicate, which establishes an address pair for each node of the private network including a virtual address within the private network assigned by an authentication module and a real address indicating a physical location associated with each node; and sends a message from a source node to a destination node including an address pair for the source node such that the real address of the source node is determinable only by an address resolution module and a real identity of the source node is determinable only by the authentication module.
Both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only, and merely provide further explanation of the claimed invention.
