ABSTRACT:
A method and an apparatus allowing a system interfaced with a network to continue functioning in a diminished capacity, even when the system is temporarily disconnected from the network. Unmodified applications running on the system which initiate a network-related operation during system isolation are coerced into a fast-fail behavior by fast-fail mechanisms residing in the system's network layer kernel modules.
