Abstract  Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and device for communication between an access terminal (AT) and a remote device through an access point (AP).

SOLUTION: Short addresses corresponding to the remote device are used for routing packets from/to the remote device between the AP and the AT for communication through air link. Thus the air link resource is saved. However longer addresses such as total IP addresses corresponding to the remote device are used for the communication between the AP and the remote device. The AT is switched between the long address and the short address when information such as packets is transmitted between the remote device and the AT. The long addresses can be IP addresses which are used for routing packets between the remote device and the AP through the layer 2 tunnel and are corresponding to the remote device for example. In some embodiment the remote device is a remote access point.
