Partners in an entity increasingly need to obtain information about data relating to communications of a terminal. A configuration method and a configuration device configure a terminal device able to be connected to a slice of a communication network. The slice is instantiated so as to route data between the terminal device and a service device in accordance with at least one routing criterion. The method is implemented by management equipment for managing the terminal device and able to communicate with the terminal device. The method includes storing a configuration context of the terminal device in memory, and transmitting, to the terminal device, a configuration message including the identifier of a proxy connection device and the identifier of the network slice.
