Abstract
A network controller device provides an inter-working function between a core network and an access network. The device comprises a first gateway configured to be connected with a switching center server over an interface which enables real-time communication streams, and a second gateway configured to be connected with a terminal over the access network, wherein the connection with the terminal can include a real-time redundancy configuration related to the loss of communication information over this connection with the terminal. The network controller device is adapted to receive information indicating that the terminal supports the real-time redundancy configuration, and to forward the information indicating the terminal'"'"'s support for the real-time redundancy configuration to the switching center server. Further disclosed is a respective method and system.
