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 said network node stores said traffic instance identification data (TIID) with a node ID of said network node as an entry in a LTS-database; querying by said network node said LTS-database of said network for entries comprising the same traffic instance identification data (TIID) to identify at least one network node for performing a local traffic shortcut (LTS); and establishing a LTS-tunnel with the identified network node.
