> When A connects to B and B connects to A *concurrently*, and no existing connections are present, then one member (with the higher address) will prevail, and the other one will close its connection and drop the message.
> This is not usually an issue, as higher-up layers will retransmit the message, thus re-establishing the connection.
> However, if we have a protocol based on negative acks, such as UNICAST2, the retransmission might take a while if that message was the last one.
> SOLUTION:
> The end that closes the connection should simply resend the message *once*, thus re-creating the connection.
