Abstract:
1. A method comprising: receiving, at communication interface circuitry, a request originating from a remote host, wherein the request includes a domain name of a mobile node; querying, by processor circuitry communicatively coupled to the communication interface circuitry, a database using the domain name for a first address of the mobile node as designated according to a first internet layer protocol; transmitting, by the processor circuitry, a wake up message to the mobile node using the first address, wherein the wake up message includes an identity of the remote host; receiving, at the communication interface circuitry, a second address of the mobile node as designated according to a second internet layer protocol, wherein the second address is assigned to the mobile node in response to the wake up message, wherein the mobile node is a cellular router configurable or manageable by the remote host; and forwarding, by the processor circuitry, the second address to the remote host.
