1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a storage unit adapted to store a domain list and a path list, wherein the domain list comprises a domain defined in a system and the path list comprises one or more paths available for communications with the domain; and
a control unit communicatively coupled to the storage unit, the control unit adapted to determine an active path from the one or more available paths and to transmit data to the domain over the active path.

Abstract
The present invention provides for managing network connections to one or more domains in a processor-based system. An apparatus is provided that comprises a storage unit and a control unit. The storage unit is adapted to store a domain list and a path list, wherein the domain list comprises a domain defined in a system and the path list comprises one or more paths available for communications with the domain. The control unit is communicatively coupled to the storage unit, wherein the control unit adapted to determine an active path from the one or more available paths and to transmit data to the domain over the active path.

19. An article comprising one or more machine-readable storage media containing instructions that when executed enable a processor to:
-
determine a domain configured in a processor-based system;
determine one or more available paths to the configured domain;
determine at least one active path from the one or more available paths to the configured domains; and
transmitting data to the configured domain over the active path. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
