Abstract
The described embodiments provide a system for performing an action based on a change in a status of a wired or wireless network connection for the system. During operation, the system detects the change in the status of the network connection. In response to detecting the change, the system determines a state of the system. The system then performs one or more actions using the determined state.

16. An apparatus for performing an action based on a change in a status of a wired or wireless network connection in a system, comprising:
-
a networking subsystem coupled to the network connection; a processing subsystem coupled to the networking subsystem; and a service subsystem coupled to the processing subsystem; wherein upon detecting the change in the status of the network connection, the networking subsystem is configured to send a signal to the processing subsystem to notify the processing subsystem that the change has occurred; wherein upon receiving the signal from the networking subsystem, the processing subsystem is configured to request state information for the system from the service subsystem; and wherein upon receiving the requested state information from the service subsystem, the processing subsystem is configured to perform one or more actions using the state information. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
