A distributed routing system is provided for use in a communication network, wherein the distributed routing system includes at least one cluster comprising a plurality of cluster elements and characterized in that the cluster elements that are used for forwarding communication traffic from among the plurality of cluster elements are synchronized there-between to a single clock and then synchronized to an external communication element, such as a client clock. Optionally, all the cluster elements that are used for forward communication traffic, are configured to implement IEEE 1588 standard and/or Synchronous Ethernet (Sync-E).

Synchronization in distributed communication systems

A network processing element and method for using it, are provided for use in a cluster comprising a plurality of network processing elements, wherein the network processing element is configured to enable provisioning of a plurality of different services, wherein the network processing element is configured to store state data associated with one or more functions required for carrying out each of the plurality of different services, and wherein the network processing element is further configured to provide a service or part thereof, based on the state data associated the network processing element's processing resources required for carrying out one or more functions in the provisioning of the requested service.
