Abstract

One embodiment relates to a method for obtaining, in a communication network, a routing policy indicating rules for routing requests emitted by a software module running on a client device. The method comprises sending, by the client device, a connection request to an authentication server of the communication network in order to attach the client device to the communications network- and receiving, by the client device, a connection context response from the authentication server. The context comprises an identifier of a system for managing routing rules. The software module obtains the routing policy in accordance with at least one first rule for routing to a proxy system certified by the operator of the communications network obtained by means of the identifier.
