It can, but we need this for remote tavor as well, anyway. > And couldn't the remote end negotiate the MTU down (if Tavor) as well ? The way to do this is would be for SA to select 1K MTU if it detects Tavor on one side and if this does not conflict with MTU selector. However 1. Even opensm does not implement this optimization yet 2. We need to work with existing SMs too -- MST _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list [email protected] http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
