Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif de traitement d'informations de passerelle locale, et le procédé comprend les opérations suivantes : un côté réseau envoie une requête d'interrogation au système d'interrogation de réseau local; le côté réseau reçoit le message de réponse renvoyé à partir du système d'interrogation de réseau local, le message de réponse véhiculant des informations d'une ou plusieurs passerelles locales. L'invention résout le problème produit par la façon dont le côté réseau obtient des informations de passerelle locale lors d'une connexion au réseau local d'accès à distance et d'un accès à distance qui ne sont pas décrits par l'état antérieur de la technique, et l'utilisation normale de l'accès à distance à une fonction de réseau local peut donc être assurée.
