<p>An arrangement and a method for interconnecting an end user local network and a packet data communication network comprising a packet data network backbone, at least one packet data node (1A, 1B) with a serving functionality for handling packet data communication, and further comprising a gateway functionality for providing communication with external network(s). It comprises at least one virtual distributed node providing a gateway functionality and comprising an interworking node device (2A) comprising converting means for converting between a local network and user communication protocol comprising a user level data packet format (ULC) and an internal packet data communication protocol using an internal packet data format (ICP). The virtual distributed node includes a management functionality (MA) for managing the interworking node device (2A), which management functionality is executed in a packet data node (1A, 1B), and the packet data network backbone is used for communication.</p> |
