Network sockets based on aliases with remote address transfer

Abstract

Today, the arsenal of IPv4 network addresses is exhausted, but many user nodes still use them to communicate using traditional Internet protocols. Along with this, there is a large-scale network address transfer (NAT) technology (LSN), designed to include IPv4 addresses in the network, even in case of their full occupancy. Although the LSN mechanism has advantages, it also has negative effects, which in specific conditions causes the inaccessibility of server applications to the global network, causing their work to slow down or block. To circumvent such situations, a network socket library based on aliases is proposed in the article, designed for the server applications operation and their communication based on automated directory distribution. The library integrates a NAT bypass mechanism using program functions and automated catalog distribution. The paper also describes the elements and conditions to use the developed software for automated catalogue distribution of socket library for the purpose of network applications communication in the Linux operating system
