Abstract

Methods of initializing an association between a first node and a second node include detecting an event indicating that the first node should establish an association with the second node. After detecting the event, the methods include waiting at least a certain amount of time before attempting to establish the association, and attempting to establish the association between the second node and the first node only after waiting the certain amount of time.
