Methods and structure are provided for managing a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) domain via Universal Serial Bus (USB) communications. The system comprises a SAS expander. The SAS expander comprises a plurality of physical links, a USB interface, and a control unit. The control unit is operable to receive USB packets via the USB interface, to determine SAS management information based upon the received USB packets, and to alter a configuration of the SAS domain based upon the SAS management information determined from the USB packets.
