Method for providing local traffic shortcut in packet-oriented mobile communication network

摘要

A method for providing a local traffic shortcut (LTS) in a packet-oriented mobile communication network comprising the steps of: providing a network node with traffic instance identification data (TIID) wherein the network node stores the TIID with a node ID of the network node as an entry in an LTS-database; querying by the network node the LTS-database of the network for entries comprising the same TIID to identify at least one network node for performing a local traffic shortcut (LTS); and establishing an LTS-tunnel with the identified network node.
