Abstract

Des modes de réalisation de la présente divulgation concernent un procédé et un dispositif de migration, qui peuvent être appliqués au domaine technique des communications. Le procédé exécuté par une première entité consiste à : envoyer les informations de demande de migration d'une troisième entité à une deuxième entité, la troisième entité et un dispositif terminal dépendant de la troisième entité accédant à un réseau fourni par la première entité ; et recevoir des premières informations de rétroaction envoyées par la deuxième entité. De cette manière, des défaillances de migration ou des défaillances de commutation du dispositif terminal peuvent être évitées, et l'expérience d'utilisateur est améliorée.
