.. ibping [options] <dest lid | guid> ibping uses vendor mads to validate connectivity between IB nodes. On exit, (IP) ping like output is show. ibping is run as client/server. Default is to run as client. Note also that a default ping server is implemented within the kernel. -c, --count stop after count packets -f, --flood flood destination: send packets back to back without delay -o, --oui use specified OUI number to multiplex vendor mads -S, --Server start in server mode (do not return) --dgid <gid> destination GID: use when GRH is required in packets (IPv6 format) Define the common option -L
. -L, --Lid The address specified is a LID Define the common option -G
. -G, --Guid The address specified is a Port GUID Define the common option -s
. -s, --sm_port <smlid> use \(aqsmlid\(aq as the target lid for SA queries. Define the common option -C
. -C, --Ca <ca_name> use the specified ca_name. Define the common option -P
. -P, --Port <ca_port> use the specified ca_port. Explanation of local port selection
. Multiple port/Multiple CA support: when no IB device or port is specified (see the "local umad parameters" below), the libibumad library selects the port to use by the following criteria: NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5 NDENT 0.0 the first port that is ACTIVE. if not found, the first port that is UP (physical link up). NINDENT If a port and/or CA name is specified, the libibumad library attempts to fulfill the user request, and will fail if it is not possible. For example: NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5

ibaddr # use the first port (criteria #1 above)
ibaddr -C mthca1 # pick the best port from "mthca1" only.
ibaddr -P 2 # use the second (active/up) port from the first available IB device.
ibaddr -C mthca0 -P 2 # use the specified port only.

NINDENT NINDENT NINDENT NINDENT Define the common option -z
. --config, -z <config_file> Specify alternate config file. NDENT 0.0 NDENT 3.5 Default: /etc/infiniband-diags/ibdiag.conf NINDENT NINDENT Define the common option -t
. -t, --timeout <timeout_ms> override the default timeout for the solicited mads. Define the common option -h
. -h, --help show the usage message Define the common option -d
. NDENT 0.0

-d raise the IB debugging level. May be used several times (-ddd or -d -d -d). NINDENT Define the common option -e
. NDENT 0.0

-e show send and receive errors (timeouts and others) NINDENT Define the common option -v
. NDENT 0.0

-v, --verbose increase the application verbosity level. May be used several times (-vv or -v -v -v) NINDENT Define the common option -V
. -V, --version show the version info.

Common text for the config file
. /etc/infiniband-diags/ibdiag.conf A global config file is provided to set some of the common options for all tools. See supplied config file for details. NDENT 0.0
