A telecommunication network and a routing method, wherein user data are routed via an access network ( 2 ) to a gateway device ( 5 ) of a core network ( 7 ) connected to the access network ( 2 ) via a first interface. The control of the gateway device ( 5 ) is performed by supplying a control information from the core network ( 7 ) to the gateway device ( 5 ) via a second interface, and the user data are routed directly between the access network ( 2 ) and the gateway device ( 5 ) via the first interface. Thus, the user data are routed directly from the access network ( 2 ) to the gateway ( 5 ), whereas the control can be performed via a dedicated and open control interface. Processing resources can be shared between several applications and trunking gains can be utilized. Furthermore, real-time transport capabilities can be provided by a simple method of connecting the Internet to the mobile network. |
