Abstract

The application relates to a method for operating a first radio access node 100 of a first packet switched mobile communications network. The first radio access node receives a request for establishing a data packet session requiring a defined quality of service and determines that the data packet session cannot be handled by the first packet switched communications network. The first radio access node triggers a hand over to a second packet switched mobile communications network based on the determining and transmits an indication towards a mobile entity (200) involved in the data packet session indicating that a resource for the data packet session will be available when the handover is completed.
