Any idea what is difference between IPoIB and IB? If I use openib (which
comes with default RHEL) is it IPoIB? and if I use Mellanox MLNX
installation , is it IB alone?
Please clarify.
As of now I am trying to remove Mellanox and trying installing back openib?
Let see if I can make it work.

Hi,
We are using QDR, CentOS 6.2 and openib, it shows 40gpbs. Hope this helps.

Charles,
How shall I install open ib back which comes with default Rhel. Did anyone
tried using openib with 40 gbps speed? Is it known issue.? I tried using it
but it just shows 10gbps.How to bring it to 40gbps.
