Hi folks.
I don't see a generic infiniband discussion list anywhere, so I figured
I'd try a Linux infiniband list.
Does anyone know for sure if MAC addresses are unique in infiniband
networks, with or without ipoib?
I know with ethernet, they're supposed to be, but:
1) Sun sometimes likes to put the same MAC address on more than one subnet
iun machines with more than one NIC
2) Some ethernet drivers let people change the MAC address
Is it about the same with infiniband?
I tried googling, but didn't find my answer.
Thanks!
