ABSTRACT:
The described invention relates to a communication method and system having at least one communication network to which a plurality of subscribers are attachable and which comprises at least one subscriber information register storing subscriber information including location information related to the subscribers, at least one gateway support node for handling connections to and/or from other networks, and at least one serving node for handling connections with connection originating or terminating elements. At least one network element is provided in addition to the gateway support node which stores information regarding the addresses of serving nodes presently or recently in charge of handling connections to and/or from connection originating or terminating elements. The gateway support node can therefore address this network element for connection, and requires reduced own storage capacity.
