Method for managing the transmission of multimedia data over an internet type network, in particular the transmission of telephone data or videophone data, and a smart card for carrying out said method

摘要

The invention relates to a method for managing data transmissions via an internet network (RI) between calling (Aa) and called (Ab) subscribers and also an associated smart card. A card ( 2 a) cooperates with a terminal ( 1 a) and has client/webserver (SSUBWEB/SUB), CGI and proxy ( 27 a) functions. The proxy function is used for the signaling channels (CS) and data channels (CD). The terminal ( 1 a) and the card ( 2 a) include specific communication protocol layers that make it possible to establish sessions for bidirectional transmission between them and/or with the internet network (RI). The smart card ( 2 a) stores applications associated with protocols for listing ( 900 a) and for locating subscribers ( 901 a), as well as subscriber profiles ( 903 a). It plays the role of a proxy in the signaling channel (CS) and/or data channel (CD).
