The present invention is related to a method for determining a data traffic load distribution over a network in an IP Multimedia Subsystem, IMS, whereby said network comprises a client source node and at least two server destination nodes. The at least two server destination nodes have a different capacity for handling data transmission requests. The method comprises the steps of said client source node sending a request for data transmission over the network to the at least two server destination nodes according to a client-server protocol, each of the at least two server destination nodes transmitting, in response to said request, an indication on the status of its actual capacity, said client source node exploiting the status indications for deciding on load distribution of the data traffic over the server destination nodes.
