[openib-general] dapltest question

A single dapltest invocation will result in multiple connections. The 
number depends on the command line. There is an initial connection to 
setup the test in which configuration information is exchanged (test 
type, parameters, etc.). Additional connections are created for -w # 
EPs. These connections execute the specified operations in order.

For the initial connection, both the client and server should have 
posted receives ready before the connection is established. Once the 
connection occurs, both post their configuration information as sends.

Let me know if you have more questions.
