IP MTU is different than link MTU. For UD mode, it's link MTU - 4. For RC (connected) mode, this can be a much larger number than the link MTU as the HCA does the segmentation/reassembly down to the path MTU. > $ man opensm > says that it can be set in the partitions.conf Yes, MTU for the IPoIB interface is set in the partition file. This would need configuring for the larger (4K) MTU assuming all ports support the 4K MTU. If not, some ports won't be able to join the IPoIB broadcast (or other) IB multicast groups and IPoIB won't work. -- Hal -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
