Method and device for setting up a data transmission connection

The invention relates to a method for setting up a data transmission connection which is formed for transmitting information between at least a first communication device (1, 6-15, 300a, 300b, 400, 401) and a second communication device (1, 6-15, 300a, 300b, 400, 401), in which method, for at least the first communication device (1, 6-15, 300a, 300b, 400, 401), a network address (321a, 321b) is selected that is advantageously used for identifying the first communication device (1, 6-15, 300a, 300b, 400, 401). In the method according to the invention, for at least one service of at least the first communication device (1, 6-15, 300a, 300b, 400, 401), an address information (320a, 320b) is formed, which is advantageously used for identifying the service, and between the network address (321a, 321b) of the first communication device (1, 6-15, 300a, 300b, 400, 401) and the address information (320a, 320b) of the service, a correspondence is arranged for transferring information between the first communication device (1, 6-15, 300a, 300b, 400, 401) and the second communication device (1, 6-15, 300a, 300b, 400, 401).
