In another embodiment, a plasma-processing chamber is adapted to create a neutral current bypass path that reduces electric current flow through a magnetic field-generating feature in the chamber.

A similar and more common programming practice is to utilize stub interfaces that bypass the local client interface call, and instead exercise a different local code path to return preset data.

When a peer departs in the mapping path, queries of its downstream peers rely on the mapping information and the backup upstream mappings to bypass the absent peer.
