Method and device for providing an address by device to be managed of a network

A method for delegating a request to establish a new connection between a cellular terminal and an anchor gateway. The cellular terminal is attached, via a first link, to a local base station including an interface with a packet switching network. A first connection is established between the terminal and the anchor gateway. An IP address is assigned to the terminal by the anchor gateway, the first connection using the IP address and the first link. The local base station: receives the request, including an indication of necessary resources; decides not to establish the new connection using the local base station based on the indication; selects an adjacent base station based on quality measurements obtained from radio signal(s) transmitted by adjacent base station(s) to the terminal; and transmits a configuration message to the terminal requesting attachment of the terminal to the selected adjacent base station via a second link.
