Abstract

A processor initiates an execution of a network driver in a first node comprising a master node of a plurality of nodes in a switchless network. The network driver configures the plurality of nodes and service level in the switchless network by transmitting management datagrams from the master node, wherein the management datagrams include an attribute that allows the management datagrams to be propagated among the plurality of nodes of the switchless network without being terminated at host channel adapters of the plurality of nodes.
