Claim Text:
1. A method for synchronizing a random seed value among a plurality of multi-core nodes in a cluster of nodes for generating a cookie signature, the method comprising: (a) generating, by a master core on a master node of a cluster of nodes comprising a plurality of cores, a random seed to be synchronized across each core of each node in the cluster of nodes; (b) storing, by the master core on the master node, the random seed to memory on the master node accessible by each core in the master node; (c) receiving, by each master core on each other node in the cluster, the random seed sent by the master core of the master node; (d) storing, by each master core on each other node in the cluster, the random seed to memory on each node accessible by each core in each node; and (e) generating, by each core of each node in the cluster of nodes, a cookie signature based on the random seed responsive to a predetermined timer.
