Abstract
A communications system (40) comprises a first entity (42), a first encryption device (48) and a network (46). The first encryption device (48) is adapted to decrypt, using a first decryption algorithm, data sent from a first destination to said first entity via said network (46). The first encryption device (48) is adapted to pass network metric data concerning at least one route between said first entity and said first destination to said first entity without subjecting said network metric data to said first decryption algorithm.
