Abstract

The present invention relates to a communications network (1, 5, 6) which transfers data between communications devices (2, 3, 4, 7) in accordance with network addresses. The communications network has a group (3, 7) of at least two communications devices coupled to it with each device in the group having a common network address. The network is then adapted to transfer data destined for the common network address to a selected one of the communications devices in the group.
