Abstract

The invention relates to identifying and/or addressing a data terminal device (DEE1) of a local network (LNW, LAN, W-LAN, Ethernet, Powerline) such that address/identification information (AID-INF3) of the data terminal device of the local network is available to a user of the local network in a simple and comfortable manner, wherein the data terminal device registers with a terminal system (ESY) due to a triggering event (ALE), indicated for example, by the URL ‘www.mygigaset.com’ and present, for example, in a large area network (GNW, WAN, MAN, INTERNET), and transmits thereto address/identification information, for example modifiable information (AID-INF1), referencing the local network and the large area network. Said address/identification information is stored by the terminal system. Subsequently, in a further data terminal device (DEE2) of the local network, the URL ‘www.mygigaset.com’ is entered into the terminal system, a connection is established with the terminal system, and address/identification information, for example modifiable information (AID-INF2), referencing the large area network is transmitted. The terminal system compares the transmitted address/identification information (AID-INF1, AID-INF2) to each other, and transmits to the further data terminal device a part of the address/identification information (AID-INF1) referring back to the local network as the address/identification information (AID-INF3) of the data terminal device (DEE1), because both data terminal devices are present in the same local network, in order that said data terminal device can communicate directly with the data terminal device (DEE1).
