Abstract

A method and a system for distributing load in a network including a requesting node and a set of external processing nodes are disclosed. The method comprises sending an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) message to each external processing node of the set of external processing nodes. The method further comprises identifying one or more external processing nodes from the set of external processing nodes as responding nodes based on a receipt of response to a corresponding ICMP message thereto. The method further comprises selecting an external processing node from the identified responding nodes as a most suitable external processing node having capability to fulfill a video processing request submitted by the requesting node. The method further comprises sending a transmission package from the requesting node to the selected external processing node for processing thereof. The method further comprises receiving a binary response from the selected external processing node.
