Abstract
A method and an arrangement for preventing an overload in a telecommunications network node where a service node transmits restriction requests to other nodes, so that the nodes will restrict the number of service requests towards the service node, including adding to a restriction request restriction parameters. The other nodes transmit the parameters they use, back to the service node, and the service node compares those parameters with the parameters it has transmitted to decide whether a restriction request is to be transmitted to the node which transmitted the parameters.
