In CapTP addressing, the search path is a list of network host addresses to contact to find a vat. A search path may include multiple addresses of the same computer, the address of a VLS or proxy, etc.
Since the actual communication channel is authenticated using the accompanying VatID, there is no harm in having stale or bogus addresses in the search path.
