According to the present invention, a plurality of data packets are received and routed by a router () in a data network. The router () comprises storing means () for storing a pre-defined list of rules for detecting special data packets, detecting means () for detecting special data packets in the received plurality of data packets on the basis of the pre-defined list of rules stored in said storing means (), and routing means () for requesting instructions for the special data packets detected by said detecting means () and for routing the special data packets in accordance with instructions received on request. According to the present invention, an advanced service architecture for next generation network services is provided. In this service architecture, the functions of the detecting means () and the routing means () can be achieved by a service trigger and a service logic, respectively.

Advanced service architecture for next generation network services and intelligent data network router

A method, telecommunication system and a network node for controlling processing of a connection, particularly when information necessary for the controlling is available at an early stage. At least one processing instance is formed for the connection to control event processing of the control. The processing instance is also associated with a functional connection to at least one control function of the telecommunication system, the control function giving instructions related to processing the connection in response to requesting the instructions. In the processing instance are defined at least one interactive event of a delayed request, in which interactive event instructions from the processing instance are requested and, after requesting, processing the connection is continued, and at least one interactive event of a delayed response, in which interactive event the instructions requested in the interactive event of the delayed request from the control function are processed.
