METHOD FOR MANAGING A COMMUNICATION WITH MULTI-SERVER SERVICE PROVIDING MEANS

摘要

The invention concerns a method for managing a communication through a telecommunication network (10) between an access terminal (18) connected to the network (10) and means (22) providing a service through the network. Said means comprise a plurality of terminals (24, 26) connected to the network, said terminals constituting servers designed to provide the service and means (28) for selecting, among said plurality of servers (24, 26), the server best adapted to provide the service to the access terminal (18). The communication is further set up in accordance with a communication protocol enabling some terminals to be mobile by attributing to each of them a main address which does not vary whatever its connection point to the network and by transmitting all transmitted data addressed to said main address to the corresponding terminal. A common main address is attributed to the service providing means (22), and all transmitted data addressed to the main address are transmitted to the server (24, 26) selected as being the most adapted to provide said service.
