Abstract

A method and apparatus are provided for selecting a network resource, in which a “controlled-entity” device connected to an IP network (20) is also capable of accessing at least one other physical and/or virtual telecommunications network. According to the method, after a step in which a request is sent or relayed by the controlled-entity or is sent to the controlled-entity, the controlled-entity then receives a session control signal containing a resource identifier representative of the physical or virtual network that the controlled-entity may or must use in order to satisfy the request.
