Method for establishing a route via a communications network

摘要

Proceeding from a source terminal device a connection setup message is communicated to a network node of the communication network A network node receiving the connection setup message enters the network node address allocated to it in the communication network and forwards the connection setup message to at least one neighboring network node. Upon reception of the connection setup message at a destination terminal device, a confirmation message is returned to the source terminal device on the identified route, whereby a switching information for a following message transmission is stored in the network nodes that have been traversed.
