1. A method comprising:
- colligating, by a computer, a connectivity ruleset comprising a plurality of connectivity rules;
evaluating, by the computer, status data for at least a first network data connection and a second network data connection with respective connectivity rules in the connectivity ruleset to select a communication link from a plurality of candidate communication links;
supplicating, by the computer, a network connection for the selected candidate communication link; and
updating the connectivity ruleset responsive to consequential data provided due to the supplicating.

Abstract
Methods, systems, apparatuses and program products are disclosed for managing connections to telecommunications networks, especially networks that deploy Internet Protocols and the like.
Provision is made for colligating a connectivity ruleset, interconverting status data to form a dataset of candidate communication links, and supplicating a network connection. Also for forming physical location profiles and selecting a network on that basis and upon a basis of a present physical location of the respective computer.

14. A computer program product comprising:
-
at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions encoded therein, the instructions when executed by at least one processor cause said at least one processor to operate for context based virtualization by steps comprising; colligating a connectivity ruleset comprising a plurality of connectivity rules; interconverting status data for at least a first network data connection and a second network data connection with respective connectivity rules in the connectivity ruleset to form a dataset that represents a plurality of candidate communication links; supplicating a network connection for a selected one of the candidate communication links; and adaptively updating the ruleset responsive to a sequella of the supplicating step. - View Dependent Claims (15)

20. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that upon execution cause a computer to:
-
colligate a connectivity ruleset comprising a plurality of connectivity rules; evaluate status data for at least a first network data connection and a second network data connection with respective connectivity rules in the connectivity ruleset to select a communication link from a plurality of candidate communication links; supplicate a network connection for the selected one of the candidate communication links; and update the connectivity ruleset responsive to consequential data provided due to the supplicating.
