ABSTRACT:
Inband Controlling of a packet-based Communications NetworkA method of handling control information (CMR latest, CMR latest new) sent inband in a packet-based communications network with traffic data, wherein the network has a buffer for temporarily storing received packets, is described. The method comprises receiving one or more packets and determining (312) first control information (CMR latest new) comprised therein, deciding (314) if the first control information (CMR latest new) is newer than second control information (CMR latest) received earlier, and, if the first control information (CMR=most recent CMR latest new) is newer than the second control information (CMR latest), handling (318) the first control information (CMR latest new) independently from a buffering of the one or more received packets which comprise the first control information (CMR latest new). The invention further relates to a network component like a packet terminal or a converting gateway for performing the method and to communications systems comprising such a network component.
