Abstract
A dynamically extended peer network is formed from a first peer network and a second peer network. The first and second peer networks are separated from each other by a boundary. A first computing system in the first peer network is configured to establish a communication link with a second computing system in the second peer network. The first computing system relays messages from the first peer network to the second computing system. The second computing system receives the messages and posts them to the second peer network. If desired, the second computing system can send a response to the message.
