METHOD AND SERVER FOR ESTABLISHING A COMMUNICATION LINK BETWEEN COMMUNICATION TERMINALS IN A PRESELECTED GROUP
First Claim
1. A method for establishing a communication link between communication terminals which belong to a preselected group of communication terminals, comprising:
- receiving, at a server of a communication network, a start message which was sent by a communication terminal;
determining, at the server, using information about the communication terminal, transmitted in the start message, the preselected group to which the communication terminal belongs;
transmitting, from the server, a link message to the communication terminal and receiving, at the server, a link confirmation message sent by the communication terminal; and
establishing the communication link between the communication terminal and other communication terminals of the group which are ready for communication.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for establishing a communication link between communication terminals (KEB1, KEG2, KEG3) which are associated with a preselected group (G) of communication terminals. According to said method, a start message 1 is captured by a server (S1, S2) of a communication link (KN1, KN2), which is sent by the communication terminal (KEG3), the preselected group is determined by the server using information transferred in the start message via the communication terminal (KEG3) and is associated with the communication terminal (KEG3). Also, a link message (2) is transferred by the server (S1, S2) to the communication terminal (KEG3). The server (S1, S2) captures a link confirmation message (3) which is sent by the communication terminal, whereby the communication link between the communication terminal (KEG3) and additional communication-ready communication terminals (KEG1, KEG2) of the group, is produced. The invention also relates to a server.

8. A server for a communication network wherein the server:
-
receives a start message sent by a communication terminal; determines a preselected group of communication terminals, to which the communication terminal belongs, using information about the communication terminal transmitted in the start message; and transmits a link message to the communication terminal and receives a link confirmation message, sent by the communication terminal, such that the communication link between the communication terminal and other communication terminals of the group which are ready for communication is established. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
