Abstract

A method is provided to control an IP core network, including first and second routers connected to an external data packet network and switches able to connect to a base station of a network for access to the first and second routers. The data packet network is able to send data streams through the IP core network destined for the terminals attached to the base station, at least one data stream currently being conveyed between the external network and at least one terminal. The method includes: establishing a rule for processing a stream by the first router, assigning the second router as backup router for the first router; transmitting to the external data packet network information relating to the assigning of the backup router; detecting an event relating to a failure of the first router; and transmitting to the backup router an established processing rule to be applied.
