The invention relates to a method for establishing a link through which at least one data stream is to be transmitted. A first communication facility and a second communication facility form a first and second end of the link, respectively. A first base station is connected to the first communication facility, and a second base station is connected to the second communication facility, the first base station having preselected the second base station from among a plurality of base stations. The method includes the following steps, implemented by the first communication facility: extracting an identifier of the first base station and an identifier of the second base station, said identifiers being included in a message transmitted by the first base station; and establishing the link between the first communication facility and the second communication facility from the extracted identifier of the first base station and the extracted identifier of the second base station.

Method and apparatuses for establishing a link between two devices

A method is provided for setting up at least two pseudo-wires able to broadcast a stream of data, wherein a first pseudo-wire is set up between an input router of a packet-switched network and first output router of the packet-switched network, and a second pseudo-wire is set up between the input router and a second output router of the packet-switched network. A first link of the first pseudo-wire is set up between the first output router and an intermediate router of the packet-switched network. A second link of the second pseudo-wire is set up between the second output router and the intermediate router. A third link of both pseudo-wires is set up between the intermediate router and the input router.
