<p>A client device, such as a terminal (TE) in a telecommunication network, includes, in an IP packet it transmits, information (ID1, ID2) on features of the client device requesting a service. The information can indicate e.g. which kind of operating system or application programming interface (API) the client device uses. This information is transmitted in the IP packet to a server (S1, S2, S3) to be utilized for selecting or configuring a suitable application such that the service is provided in the form required by the features and/or application of the particular client device that requested the service. Similar information can also be added to the IP packets or broadcast frames transmitted from the server to be used by the client device. The identifier information can also be used for routing the IP packet in the network.</p> |
