Method for geolocating logical network addresses on electronically switched dynamic communications networks, such as the Internet, using the time latency of communications to and from the logical network address to determine its location. Minimum round-trip communications latency is measured between numerous stations on the network and known network addressed equipment to form a network latency topology map (Step 200). Minimum round-trip communiations latency is also measured between the stations and the logical network address to be geolocated (Step 240). The resulting set of minimum round-trip communications latencies is then correlated with the network latency topology map to determine the location of the network address to be geolocated (Step 300).

La présente invention concerne un procédé de géolocalisation d'adresses de réseau logique sur des réseaux de communication dynamiques commutés électroniquement, tels que l'Internet, qui utilise le temps de latence des communications à destination et en provenance de l'adresse de réseau logique pour déterminer sa localisation. On mesure un temps de latence de communication aller et retour minimum entre de nombreuses stations du réseau et une installation adressée de réseau connue de façon à former une carte topologique de temps de latence de réseau (étape 200). On mesure aussi une latence de communication aller et retour minimum entre les stations et l'adresse de réseau logique à géolocaliser (étape 240). L'ensemble des temps de latence des communications aller et retour minimum qui en résulte est ensuite corrélé avec la carte topologique de temps de latence de façon à déterminer la localisation de l'adresse de réseau à géolocaliser (étape 300).
