Abstract
The invention relates generally to procedures facilitating the routing in a network-structured telecommunications network. In the network structure according to the invention, connections are established by using a predetermined partial group of connections forming a tree topology. Advantageously the number of said predetermined tree topologies is more than one, in which case the node starting the setup of the connection chooses the tree topology to be used in establishing the connection in question. Thus the advantages offered by the tree topology can be flexibly utilised in a network-structured telecommunications network.
