Abstract
A plurality of nodes are maintained in a switchless network, wherein each of the plurality of nodes has at least one host channel adapter for communication. A management datagram that indicates source to destination routes for communication in the plurality of nodes is provided. An attribute is configured in the management datagram to allow the management datagram to be propagated among the plurality of nodes of the switchless network without being terminated at host channel adapters.
