Method for making contact between a peer communication terminal and an index server

A method for making contact between a peer communication terminal and an index server for providing peer-to-peer data transmission is provided. The method involves a peer communication terminal associated with a first telecommunication network sending a make-contact message addressed to a first index server. This make-contact message is transmitted to a proxy node in the first telecommunication network. The proxy node terminates the transmission of the make-contact message, and the proxy node then prompts contact to be made between the peer communication terminal and a second index server, which is arranged in the first telecommunication network.
