The invention relates to a system and method for reducing and reconstructing state entries for initiator messages in a communication network. It compares a set of common options to each initiator message. If the message has the common options, no state entry is created for the message. This saves resources in systems such as Peer to Peer networks utilizing TCP/IP, where there is often no acceptor (SYN/ACK) to an initiator (SYN). By utilizing the present invention an agent dealing with communications need not maintain state for every connection. Upon receiving an acceptor message corresponding to an initiator message, the agent may create a state entry from the common options.
