An agile digital communications network has a number of routers that serve as nodes in a mesh network communicating between a user device (e.g., computer, server, etc.) and a target device (e.g., disc storage cabinets, tape, jukebox, etc.). The routers operate on an open shortest path first protocol, each router having two or more interfaces or links to other routers. When a link connected to a router is down and is in the shortest path to another router identified in a communication packet, the packet is forwarded to the identified router on a precalculated alternate route that does not use the unavailable link. IP tunneling assures that routing loops do not occur and send the packet back to the router with the unavailable link because it would have been in the shortest path of an intermediate router. A tunneling technique is provided that maximizes the levels of encapsulation needed at two, regardless of the size or configuration of the network. An unavailable link is not broadcast immediately throughout the network, giving the link an opportunity to be restored before all of the routers are called on to recalculate the shortest paths and alternate paths. During a short interval following the discovery of an unavailable link, then, a router connected to that link is in a state identified as the Use Alternate Path state, and the link is repeatedly checked for availability. Each router calculates and stores the alternative paths to each other router after first calculating the shortest path to each other router. The alternate paths are pulled up and used when an unavailable link is detected. Dijkstra's algorithm is used to calculate the shortest paths. A new algorithm called the iterative dynamic Dijkstra's algorithm is used to calculate the alternative routes.

The terminal adaptor receives a display data packet the terminal adaptor ID of which agrees with that contained in the identification information and transfers the display data packet to the display unit. The display unit receives the display data packet the display unit ID of which agrees with that contained in the identification information, and drives the display element to display an image.

In a computer communication network including a firewall which protects a secured host against attack from outside computers, the host communicating with an outside computer, through the firewall, via data packets which include byte sequence numbers. In a communication between the host and computer in which one of them acts as a source and the other as a destination for the communication, a sequence number offset is derived by the firewall which characterizes the byte sequence number received from the source and the byte sequence number the firewall will provide to the destination for that communication. In a communication received from the source, the firewall adds the offset to byte sequence numbers in a packet passing between the source and destination, in order to determine the byte sequence numbers it will provide to the destination. Thus, proper sequence numbers can be provided to both locations, without the firewall having to restructure packets. This speeds communication between the source and destination and substantially reduces the commitment of processing and storage resources.

A system for use with communications according to TCP, or a similar protocol, includes a sender host, one or more routers, and a destination host. Each router includes means for generating acknowledgement packets and translating addresses associated with data packets. When a data packet is received by a router, an acknowledgement packet is returned with a source address corresponding to the router and a destination address corresponding to the sender host.

As the acknowledgment packet is sent by the router, and not the destination packet is sent by the router, and not the destination host, this system allows acknowledgment packets to be received on a shorter timescale, reducing the effects of a link delay. Although the route between the sender host and the destination host is divided into multiple connections, the hosts perceive a single, conventional connection.
