[ofa-general] opensm console -what is it?

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

I see this (man opensm):

       -console [off | local | socket]
              This option brings up the OpenSM console (default off).   Note  that  the
              socket option will only be available if OpenSM --enable-console-socket.

       -console-port <port>
              Specify  an alternate telnet port for the socket console (default 10000).
              Note that this option only appears if OpenSM was built with --enable-con-
              sole-socket.

But what is it? Let's try:

# /usr/local/ofed/bin/opensm -console local

Hmm .. how does one exit?
