Abstract

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. 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.
