Obscured routing method for computer networks
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11855955B2) discloses a computer-implemented method for efficient routing in a network. The method involves sending unique identifiers and destination information to neighbor nodes, receiving completed routes from these nodes, and sending messages based on the received identifiers. The unique identifiers are used to resolve addresses in the network, allowing for effective communication between nodes. The method also includes steps for handling cases where the destination node is not a direct neighbor, ensuring robust routing capabilities within the network.
Furthermore, the patent details a system comprising computers and storage devices that execute instructions to perform the routing operations described in the method. This system enables nodes to exchange information, establish routes to destination nodes, and handle failure scenarios effectively. By utilizing unique identifiers and peer tables, the system ensures that each node can resolve addresses accurately and communicate efficiently within the network. Overall, the patented method and system offer a structured approach to routing in networks, enhancing connectivity and communication between nodes while maintaining robustness and reliability in data transmission.
