Notes

• For version 8.0.0100, the only valid interface is “1/2”

• If the peer IB port is down, the message below will appear in brackets as part of the Operational State of the Ethernet port: "IB port down". 
  The peer port of the Ethernet port is the IB port on the same device, for example "1/1" is the peer of "1/2".

• If LAG is not configured correctly on the ethernet router, the message below will appear in brackets as part of the Operational State of the Ethernet port: "Suspended". 
  This message has higher priority than the "IB port down" message.

• If an Ethernet port channel is down, the message below will appear on brackets as part of the Operational State of the Ethernet port: "inherited down".
  This message has higher priority then the "IB port down" and "Suspended" messages.

• In version 8.0.1600, configuring IP on IB port-channel configures additional IP on one of the physical IB interfaces which is formed by incrementing the passed IP address by one.
  For example, running the command "interface ib port-channel 1 ip address 1.1.1.1/24" will configure the IP addresses "1.1.1.1" and "1.1.1.2" on one of the physical IB interfaces.

• If IP is not configured, then the IPv4 and Broadcast addresses will not be shown

• When no PKEY is specified, the operation is applied on the default PKEY (0x7FFF)

• This show command takes data from the Linux and should reflect the IP addresses currently installed. In case one address was not installed, N/A will be displayed. One of the following reasons will be displayed in brackets:

• If the interface is not specified, then the command prints all the Infiniband interfaces includes PKEYs.

• This command doesn't show counters. It is possible to debug via counters using counters of InfiniBand interfaces shown as part of the command "show interface ib <device>/<port>" or using the counters shown as part of the command "show interface ib port-channel * counters aggregate"

• RX/TX counters will appear in the output until a non-default pkey is configured

-t

Sets the TOS (IPv4 type of service) or TC (IPv6 traffic class) value for outgoing packets

-l

Uses specified flow_label for IPv6 packets

-w

Sets the number of seconds to wait for response to a probe (default is 5.0). Non-integer (float point) values allowed too.

-q

Sets the number of probes per each hop
Default: 3

-s

Uses source src_addr for outgoing packets

-z
