Zusammenfassung:A method of handling multipath connections in a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN). The method comprising the steps of determining within the PLMN that a path, established across the PLMN, is a backup path of a multipath connection and providing an explicit indication to one or more nodes within the PLMN that the path is a backup path using a protocol layer that is otherwise unaware of the multipath connection. The method further comprises the step of, at the or each notified node, applying a handling to the path that is differentiated from the handling of non-backup paths.
