Abstract

Conformément à un mode de réalisation, la présente invention concerne un procédé de sélection de point d'accès et un dispositif associé, le procédé consistant : à acquérir une première description de caractéristique d'une application cible d'un terminal; selon la première description de caractéristique, à déterminer que le nom de point d'accès (APN) courant du terminal ne peut pas être utilisé pour transmettre le paquet de données d'une application cible; à déterminer pour le terminal un APN cible capable d'être utilisé pour transmettre le paquet de données de l'application cible; et à donner l'instruction au terminal de transmettre le paquet de données de l'application cible par l'intermédiaire de l'APN cible. La présente invention détecte si l'APN courant est ou non correct, et envoie de manière opportune un APN correct à un terminal après détection du fait que l'APN courant est incorrect, permettant ainsi d'éviter l'inaccessibilité des données d'application ou l'échec d'établissement d'application provoqué par une erreur de sélection d'APN.
