<p>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.</p> |
