Abstract:
A method and system for maintaining a connection in a communication network is provided. One implementation involves activating a first network interface for obtaining a first network address for communication over the network; monitoring the network and determining a first lease time for the first network address; activating a second network interface for obtaining a second network address for communication over the network upon approaching end of the lease time, thereby maintaining communication over the network via the second network address; and deactivating the first network interface.
