Abstract
An example involves when a first logical circuit identifier of the dedicated logical circuit that is to communicate data only between a host device and a remote device does not match a second logical circuit identifier of a logical failover circuit comprising an alternate communication path for communicating the data, and when the dedicated logical circuit has failed: the second logical circuit identifier is renamed to identify the logical failover circuit using the first logical circuit identifier when the logical failover circuit is a dedicated logical failover circuit to communicate only when the dedicated logical circuit fails, and the dedicated logical circuit is renamed to identify the dedicated logical circuit using the second logical circuit identifier when the logical failover circuit is to communicate regardless of failure of the dedicated logical circuit.
