Routers

This section specifies options for retrieving InfiniBand Routers configuration and verification of Floating LIDs (FLIDs) configuration on a local and adjacent networks. If FLIDs are enabled, two new files are generated:

  • ibdiagnet2.arg2flid - represents distribution of "Adaptive Routing" groups per FLIDs on routers

  • ibdiagnet.flid – contains details about networks FLIDs ranges, FLIDs enabled on the routers, and distribution of FLIDs per switches in the local network

Examples: 

  • ibdiagnet's Output: FLIDs are disabled/subnet does not have any router
