Abstract
A method for establishing a bidirectional connection between a client and a remote node is disclosed. The method is performed by a processing unit that is a member of a cluster of processing units implementing clients for a communication network node, wherein each member of the cluster comprises at least one identifier that is unique within the cluster, and wherein each member of the cluster shares the same Virtual Internet Protocol (VIP) address. An eligible dynamically allocated connection resource value for the connection comprises a resource value which ensure distribution coherency for packets returned on the connection, and a permissible dynamically allocated connection resource value for the connection comprises a resource value which will not cause a protocol violation of a protocol used for establishing the bidirectional connection.
