Method, device and computer readable medium for controlling D2D routing

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code;
• the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus in a device-to-device, D2D, connection group to:
• receive a D2D route policy for routing traffic of at least one application on the apparatus, the policy at least indicating route selection criteria for the at least one application and D2D paths satisfying the route selection criteria, wherein the policy is generated based on proximity information for the group, information concerning the apparatus and the route selection criteria;
• and
• route traffic of the at least one application based on the policy.

A method, comprising:

• generating, at a first device, proximity information for a device-to-device, D2D, connection group;
• obtaining information concerning a second device in the group;
• generating a D2D route policy for routing traffic of at least one application on the second device, based on the generated proximity information, the obtained information concerning the second device and route selection criteria for the at least one application, the policy at least indicating the route selection criteria and D2D paths satisfying the route selection criteria;
• and
• sending the D2D route policy to be used by the second device to route traffic of the at least one application.
