Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 7:
8. A method in a mesh network including a first meshnet device in communication with a second meshnet device, the first meshnet device being connected to a first local area network (LAN), the method comprising:
receiving, by the first meshnet device from the second meshnet device via a meshnet connection between the first meshnet device and the second meshnet device, an initiation network packet to be transmitted by the first meshnet device to a first LAN device connected to the LAN, the initiation network packet indicating a first subnet IP address as a destination address;
comparing, by the first meshnet device, the first subnet IP address with a stored subnet IP address that is stored in a memory in correlation with the second meshnet device, the correlation indicating whether the second meshnet device may access the first LAN device; and
selectively transmitting, by the first meshnet device, the initiation network packet to the first LAN device based at least in part on a result of comparing the first subnet IP address with the stored subnet IP address.
