Abstract
Edge networks for surrogate browsing and direct traffic via proxy are disclosed. A first server processes a received first IPv4 packet into an encapsulation. The encapsulation is sent to a second server. The second server determines a third server to which the encapsulation should be routed and transmits it. The third server processes the encapsulation, selects a public IP address, and transmits a second IPv4 packet using the selected public IP address as a source address of the second IPv4 packet.
