Abstract

The integrated information communication system is comprised of an access control apparatus for connecting a plurality of computer communication networks or information communication equipment to each, and a relay device for networking the aforementioned access control apparatus. The system has functions for performing routing by transferring information by a unified address system and by changing address at the access control apparatus, and is configured such that the aforementioned plurality of computer communication networks or information communication equipment can perform communications in an interactive manner. The integrated information communication system ensures communication speed, communication quality, communication trouble countermeasures in a unified manner, without using dedicated lines or the Internet, wherein security and reliability in communication is ensured without change of a private address system.

Claims

1. An integrated information communication system in which an ICS network address of an internal ICS network frame is determined based on an ICS logic terminal on a sending side and the ICS user address assigned to a sender ICS user frame, and an ICS logic terminal on a receiving side to which a sender ICS network frame is to be transmitted is determined based on the thus determined ICS network address.

2. An integrated information communication system in which an ICS network address for identifying an ICS logic terminal is assigned to an ICS logic terminal at an end of a user communication line, and an ICS network communication line for transferring an ICS network frame is determined between an access control apparatus on a sending side and an access control apparatus on a receiving side when there is determined a set of an ICS logic terminal identification information of a sending side and a receiver ICS user address.

3. An IP communication network, wherein said IP communication network is connected to two or more terminals, each of said terminals being operable to send a telephone number to said IP communication network, and a communication connecting control between terminals is carried out by using IP packets based on a telephone number sent from at least one of said terminals.

4. An IP communication network, wherein said IP communication network is connected to two or more terminals, each of said terminals being operable to send a telephone number to said IP communication network, a communication connecting control between terminals is carried out by using IP packets based on a telephone number sent from at least one of said terminals, and thereby to connect to a cellular phone.
