The negotiation comprises at least defining a port of the device for said related connection. The method further checks if relationship between said port of the device and the control connection fulfills predefined criteria, and conditionally blocks said related connection, if said port of the device does not fulfill said predefined criteria. The method can be used for suppressing a vulnerability related to applets.
