Patent ID: 10959285

Abstract:
A method, performed by a gateway node (110), for managing packets on a transport connection between a first end-point (120) and a second end-point (130) is disclosed. The gatewaynode (110) forwards (A020), on the transport connection (105), a first packet from the first end-point (120) to the second end-point (130). The gateway node (110) finds (A040), by inspection of the first packet, that the first packet indicates closing of the transport connection (105) at the first end-point (120). Moreover, the gateway node (110) receives (A120) after the finding (A040), on the transport connection, a second packet from the second end-point (130), wherein the second packet is destined to the first end-point (120). Furthermore, the gateway node (110) discards (A130) the second packet, thereby refraining from forwarding, on the transport connection, the second packet from the second end-point (130) to the first end-point (120). A gateway node (110), a computer program and a computer program carrier are also disclosed.
