Claim 0:
1. A method of managing resources of a converged fixed access and mobile radio telecommunications network, at least some of said resources being implemented in a virtualized and remote form in said network, optical resources of said network being allocated between at least one optical router and a plurality of optical modems of said network, said plurality of optical modems comprising:
at least one fixed access optical modem, at least one fixed user equipment item being connected to a fixed access part of said network via said fixed access optical modem; and
at least one mobile radio optical modem, at least one base station being connected to a mobile radio part of said network via said at least one mobile radio optical modem, wherein a module for centralized management of the fixed access and optical resources of said network implements:
receiving at least one performance indicator of said fixed access part of said network, referred to as a fixed access performance indicator, transmitted by at least one module belonging to the group comprising:
said at least one optical router;
said at least one fixed access optical modem;
said at least one mobile radio optical modem; and
at least one module of virtualized fixed equipment functions,

receiving information representative of optical resource requirements of said mobile radio part of said network, referred to as optical mobile radio requirement information, transmitted by a module for centralized management of mobile radio resources of said network;
reallocating said optical resources between, firstly, said at least one optical router and said at least one fixed access optical modem and, secondly, said at least one optical router and said at least one mobile radio optical modem as a function of said at least one fixed access performance indicator and said optical mobile radio requirement information, providing at least one item of information representative of said reallocation of optical resources, referred to as fixed access and mobile radio reallocation information.
