Abstract
Methods and systems for identifying communication circuits are disclosed. In particular a communication circuit communicatively couples a first node to a second node. A virtual circuit identification is then obtained based on a first address associated with the first node and a second address associated with the second node. The communication circuit is then identified based on the virtual circuit identification.
