DEVICE AND METHOD FOR GENERATING CONFIRMATIONS OF DATA TRANSFERS BETWEEN COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENTS, BY DATA COMPARISON

摘要

A method is intended for generating confirmations of data transfers between communication equipments (CE1 -CE2) connected to a communication network (CN). This method consists, when an application running in a first communication equipment (CE1 ) wants to transfer data packets to at least one second communication equipment (CE2), i) in transmitting a request, comprising communication identifiers of the first (CE1 ) and second (CE2) communication equipments and requesting a data transfer control, to first (GW1 ) and second (GW2) auxiliary communication equipments acting as interfaces between the communication network (CN) and the first (CE1 ) and second (CE2) communication equipments, respectively, and ii) in storing auxiliary data representative of these data packets transferred through the first (GW1 ) and second (GW2) auxiliary communication equipments, these stored auxiliary data constituting proofs of transmission of the data packets by the first communication equipment (CE1 ) and of reception of at least some of these data packets by the second communication equipment (CE2).
