Abstract:
Device, address system and computer program product for routing data from the device to an endpoint over a network. The device executes an instance of a client for routing the data. An address query for requesting a network address of the endpoint is formed in dependence on the type of the client instance, and the address query is sent to the address system. The address system determines an endpoint address based on the address query such that the endpoint address is dependent upon the type of the client instance and sends the endpoint address to the device. Data is then routed from the device to the endpoint address over the network.
