APPLYING MULTICAST PROTOCOLS AND VPN TUNNELING TECHNIQUES TO ACHIEVE HIGH QUALITY OF SERVICE FOR REAL TIME MEDIA TRANSPORT ACROSS IP NETWORKS
First Claim
1. A method for data transport on an IP network, the method comprising:
- creating one or more virtual private networks to transport said data;
wherein said creating uses tunneling methodsusing one or more multicast routing protocols on the ends of each virtual private network tunnel.

Abstract
As prior art systems fail to produce end-to-end transport and routing mechanisms capable of secure, accurate, and timely delivery of real-time media, the present invention prescribes the method and process to facilitate server-less, IP based sessions across all of public and private network infrastructure without regard for network hardware or carrier makeup. The method and process claimed herein defines the application of well known standards in a unique fashion so as to facilitate transportation of TCP and UDP packets associated with a real-time multicast session in a secure manner while achieving unencumbered access through firewalls and across multiple carrier, public networks through IPSec based virtual networking.

10. A method for reduction of multipoint transport delay, the method comprising;
-
using an application and system to transport real-time media data; wherein one or more servers authenticates one or more user ID'"'"'s for permission and assignment to said multicast group; wherein one or more servers generates said multicast group routing addresses for deliver to said multicast enabled routers; wherein said multicast router instantiates one or more multipoint communication tunnels between said creation and termination points within said one or more public or private networks; wherein the said transport of said real-time media data payload never leaves the network during transport. need not be processed, compressed, decompressed, encrypted or un-encrypted, controlled or manipulated by said server. - View Dependent Claims (11)
