Configure Basic Connectivity
The InfiniBand switch is not pre-configured with an IP address. You must configure the IP address of a

A Management port is provided for a connected Ethernet host running TCP/IP or connected InfiniBand
hosts running IPoIB. Configure the Management port you wish to use.
