Abstract:
A wide area network using the internet as a backbone utilizing specially selected ISX/ISP providers whose routers route packets of said wide area network along private tunnels through the internet comprised of high bandwidth, low hop-count data paths. Firewalls are provided at each end of each private tunnel which recognize IP packets addressed to devices at the other end of the tunnel and encapsulate these packets in other IP packets which have a header which includes as the destination address, the IP address of the untrusted side of the firewall at the other end of the tunnel. The payload sections of these packets are the original IP packets and are encrypted and decrypted at both ends of the private tunnel using the same encryption algorithm using the same key or keys.

Claim (Index 14):
A method of routing packets at a first machine, the packets originating from one or more sources and destined for one or more destinations, the method comprising:\n receiving the packets; filtering the received packets to distinguish first packets which are to be associated with a virtual private network from second packets which are not to be associated with the virtual private network; encapsulating the first packets; accessing a routing table and routing the encapsulated packets for forwarding of the first packets to a destination of the one or more destinations; and accessing a routing table and routing the second packets for forwarding to a destination of the one or more destinations; wherein routing the encapsulated packets includes using only one or more preplanned first routes associated with a predetermined private tunnel to route the encapsulated packets, and wherein routing the second packets includes using only one or more second routes to route the second packets.
