Abstract
A method of maintaining communications in a bus bridge interconnect including a plurality of buses linked by at least one bus bridge. The method includes receiving a change indication signal from a talker node, performing an address resolution protocol in response to the change indication signal to find an updated node identification address(“nodeID”) for a listener node using a extended unique identifier (“EUI”) of the listener node, and storing the updated listener nodeID with the listener node EUI.
