| Zusammenfassung: | A method to forward in a telecommunication domain of a telecommunication network a control plane information packet of a stream of information packets being received by an edge node of the telecommunication domain is claimed. The information packets comprises a protocol identifier field. The method further comprises the steps of by the edge node retrieving a value of the protocol identifier field of one of the received information packets and; by the edge node, in the event when the value matches a first predefined value that identifies the information packet as being a control plane information packet of a predefined protocol, forwarding the information packet to a path-decoupled decision node in the telecommunication domain for being processed. (FIG. 1). |
