Abstract

A communication system for providing an access to an Internet Protocol (IP) network to a wireless terminal, having a gateway to pass data from the wireless terminal to the IP network and having first and second groups of servers, the first group includes a plurality of servers and the second group includes a plurality of servers. The first group is configured to: receive data from the wireless terminal, select a destination address as a selected destination address for the received data, and forward the data to a server of the second group corresponding to the selected destination address. The server of the second group performs data processing of the forwarded data, the data processing including modification of a part of a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) tunneling protocol (GTP) payload of the forwarded data, and output the processed data to the IP network.
