Abstract

See full text

In a peer-to-peer communication network between terminals, classes are assigned respectively to said terminals, a class indicating the transmission capacity of the terminal. The transmission capacity of a terminal corresponds to at least one transmission characteristic associated with the terminal and depends at least on a type of underlying physical network to which the terminal belongs. At a first terminal, a request is received to transmit digital content to a second terminal, the request indicating the class assigned to the second terminal. Then a decision is made whether or not to transmit a least a portion of the digital content to the second terminal, on the basis of said indicated class. Finally, the decision is transmitted to the second terminal.
