본 연구에서는 인터넷상에 존재하는 웹 사이트를 새로운 도메인 네임으로 연결시켜주는 URL forwarding 서버를 설계 및 구현하였다. URL forwarding 서버는 수많은 인터넷 사용자들의 웹 사이트를 간단하고 다양한 형태의 URL로 매핑 시켜준다. URL forwarding 서버는 HTTP 프로토콜에서 redirection 응답코드를 기반으로 구현되었으며 Linux 시스템에서 실험을 하였다. 본 논문에서는 HTTP와 forwarding 서버를 서로 비교 분석하여 고찰해보고 구현된 forwarding 서버의 동작에 대해서 알아본다.

A lot many WWW sites are come into the world more and more as Web is considered as the unified Internet information tool. The location of each site or resource is usually specified by a physical URL, which is often too long to remember and tends to raise difficulty to show the aim of the site intuitively by seeing it. Since any person or organization can get his/her own domain name easily, it is more desirable to use a logical URL with the domain name which can be chosen more compact to remember and meaningful to represent the ultimate intention of the site. This paper presents an implementation of a URL forwarding server which forwards a URL to another, so that a WWW site can use a logical URL instead of a physical one. The server consists of a domain mapper which uses the redirection transaction of the HTTP protocol, and a name server based on the HIND. The paper shows how the interaction between the domain mapper and the name sever can make forwarding possible and describes its implementation in detail. Experimental results shows that the overhead incurred by URL forwarding is negligible compared to the typical delay of current Internet traffic condition.
