Abstract:
A method ( 100 ), performed by a first network node in a communication network, is disclosed. The first network node is connected to a second network node of the communication network via an interface implementing a GPRS Tunnelling Protocol (GTP). The method comprises selecting a user data packet for transmission to the second network node ( 110 ) and identifying information about the user data packet which impacts how the user data packet should be routed over the interface ( 120 ). The method further comprises encoding the identified information into a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) header of the user data packet ( 130 ) and forwarding the user data packet to the interface for transmission to the second network node ( 140 ). Another method ( 300 ) is disclosed, performed by a node in a Mobile Transport Network, the Mobile Transport Network providing a GTP based interface between a first network node of a communication network and a second network node of the communication network. The method comprises receiving a user data packet from the first network node for transmission over the interface to the second network node ( 310 ), extracting, from a UDP header of the user data packet, information about the user data packet which impacts how the user data packet should be routed over the interface ( 320 ) and using the extracted information in a routing decision to forward the user data packet to the second network node ( 330 ). Also disclosed are a communication network node ( 500, 700 ), a Mobile Transport Network node ( 600, 800 ) and a computer program configured to carry out methods in a communication network node and a Mobile Transport Network node.

Claim (Index 64):
The method as claimed in  claim 63 , wherein mapping the TEID to the composite flow identifier comprises mapping the TEID to the composite flow identifier for a composite flow including user data packets having at least one shared characteristic with the user data packet.
