Abstract
A system for management of the usage of consultations in a telecommunication network, in which one consultation is carried out by communication between a remote server center, and a local subscriber terminal, via a telecommunication link of switched type. A usage management module is provided, which is external to the link and makes it possible, through interactive communication between the local subscriber terminal and the management module, as well as between the management module and the remote server center, to set up, monitor and acknowledge the usage between the remote server center and a subscriber terminal.
