Claim 0:
1. A first apparatus in a distributed system, wherein the distributed system comprises the first apparatus and M second apparatuses, wherein the first apparatus comprises:
a processor;
a memory coupled to the processor and configured to store programming instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the network device to be configured to:
establish a target connection to a target end external to the distributed system, wherein the target connection is a target transport protocol-based connection;
send an identity range of at least one stream to each of N second apparatuses of the M second apparatuses;
send connection information of the target connection to each of the N second apparatuses to enable each of the N second apparatuses to determine a stream identity based on the identity range and transmit data to the target end using the at least one stream of the target connection,
wherein different streams correspond to different identity ranges,
wherein the stream identity is carried in the at least one stream,
wherein the connection information indicates a parameter for data transmission,
wherein M and N are positive integers greater than or equal to 1, and
wherein N is less than or equal to M.
