Abstract

A method for selecting a route for outgoing data traffic includes receiving, by a communication terminal, at least one user equipment route selection policy rule, which comprises a traffic descriptor and at least one route selection component. The communication terminal detects a traffic-related information item which is related to at least one outgoing data unit. The communication terminal selects a user equipment route selection policy rule from the at least one received user equipment route selection policy rule, where a traffic descriptor of the selected user equipment route selection policy rule is associated with the detected traffic-related information item on the basis of a matching table that is stored in the communication terminal. The communication terminal selects a route for the at least one outgoing data unit on the basis of a route selection component of the selected user equipment route selection policy rule.
