A method for establishing a data session between a first endpoint and a second endpoint

摘要

A method for establishing a data transfer session between a first endpoint and a second endpoint is described. In the first endpoint, a connection to the second endpoint is requested from a management node. Information including the identity of a plurality of repeaters each offering a possible route between the first and second endpoints is received from the management node. A repeater is selected and information is transmitted to the second endpoint by sending the information to the selected repeater. The method is repeated at the second endpoint.
