Abstract

Implementations of the disclosed technology may respond to a discovery request according to the origination of the discovery request. In these implementations, a discovery request for a connection to a device assigned to a reusable zone may be obtained. If the discovery request does not originate from a local switch group, the discovery response may indicate that there is no device at the connection.
