ABSTRACT:
An offload system, method, and computer program product are provided for handling transport layer processing of a connection between a local host and a remote host via at least one network. A network interface associated with the local host is utilized for such purpose. A plurality of ports allow communication between the local host and the at least one network. The communications corresponding with the connection are monitored and the connection is associated with at least one port. At least one of the ports receiving the communications corresponding with the connection are identified.
