Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019179855A1] The invention relates to a method for distributing content, particularly multimedia content, from a content server (CDN) in at least one private network comprising at least three terminals that can exchange data between each other, the bandwidth with which at least one terminal can connect to the content server being insufficient for allowing the distribution of the content to each of the terminals by the connection of each terminal to the content server (CDN), the method comprising the steps consisting of: d) identifying, particularly in a management server (EB), at least one of said terminals as a master client (SPV) and at least two other of said terminals as slave clients (SLV), e) transmitting at least one part of the content to be distributed to said master client (SPV), particularly via the connection to the content server (CDN), and f) causing the master client (SPV) to push at least part of the content to be distributed to at least one of the slave clients (SLV) of the private network via the connections existing between the terminals in the private network.
