Abstract

Method and apparatuses for controlling a peer-to-peer communication involving media communication between a subscriber (A) and one or more opposite peers (B, C, D). When a policy node (300) detects that the peer-to-peer communication is activated for the subscriber, session parameters are determined (3:4) for the media communication based on predefined peer-to-peer service rules configured (3:1) at the policy node. The session parameters are then implemented (3:6) in an access gateway (304) that controls network resources for the media communication.
