ABSTRACT:
A method and management port for an indirect loop protocol associated with an interconnect device. In one embodiment, a method to handle a request sent to an interconnect device includes receiving the request at a destination switch from a host network adapter; generating a response to the request in the destination switch; and returning the response to the host network adapter, wherein the destination switch includes a management port for addressing the interconnect device that implements an indirect loop protocol.
