Abstract
An approach is disclosed that transmits a command from an initiating device, the command being directed to a target device and the initiating device is disconnected from the target device. The command is sent through any number of receiving devices to eventually be received by the target device with the other receiving devices being intermediate devices. The approach identifies a set of connectivity conduits between the receiving devices where at least one of the connectivity conduits is between one of the intermediate devices and the target device. The initiating device receives a confirmation from one of the intermediate device that the command was transmitted to the target device by the intermediate device.
