Method of transmitting data between peerss by selecting a network according to at least one criterion and associated management device and communication equipment

摘要

A method is dedicated to data transmission in peer-to-peer mode between peers (P1-P4) being able to connect by means of communication equipment (E1-E4) to a first communication network (R1) providing access to the Internet and to a second communication network (R2). This method consists, when a communication application of the peer-to-peer type (A) running in a first peer (P1) must transmit data to at least one second peer (P3) in which the same communication application (A) runs, i) in choosing one of the first (R1) and second (R2) networks according to at least one criterion chosen to perform its transmission, and ii) in connecting the first peer (P1), via its equipment (E1), to the network chosen to transmit the data in peer-to-peer mode to the second peer (P3), via this chosen network.
