Viewing Node Ports

To view the IB ports on a node in your IB fabric:
1. Expand the InfiniBand icon in the Tree frame.
2. Expand the Topology icon in the IB frame.
3. Click the Nodes branch. The Nodes table appears in the View frame.

Linear FDB Top

Specifies the top of the linear forwarding table. Packets
received with unicast LIDs greater than this value are
discarded by the switch. This parameter applies only to
switches that implement linear forwarding tables and is
ignored by switches that implement random forwarding
tables.

Default Port

Specifies the default port to forward all the unicast packets
from other ports whose destination local identifier (DLID)
does not exist in the random forwarding table.

Default Primary MCast Port

Specifies the default port to forward all the multicast packets
from other ports whose DLID does not exist in the multicast
forwarding table.

Default Non-Primary MCast
Port

Specifies the port to forward all the multicast packets from
default-pri-mcast-port whose DLID does not exist in the
multicast forwarding table.

Lifetime Value

Specifies the duration a packet can live in the switch. Time
units are in milliseconds. Refer to section 18.2.5.4,
Transmitter Queueing, “InfiniBand® Architecture, Vol. 1,
Release 1.0”, for more information.

Switch Port State Change

Indicates a change in port state. The value changes from
NotInTransition to PortInTransition anytime the State
parameter of a port changes from down to initialize, initialize
to down, armed to down, or active to down, as a result of
link state machine logic.

LID Per Port

Number of LID/LMC combinations that may be assigned to a
given external port for switches that support the random
forwarding table. This value is always 0. 0 indicates that there
is one LID per port.

Partition Enforce Cap

Number of entries in this partition enforcement table per
physical port. Zero (0) indicates that partition enforcement is
not supported by the switch.

In Enforce Cap

Indicates if the switch is capable of partition enforcement on
received packets. The value is true or false.

Out Enforce Cap

Indicates if the switch is capable of partition enforcement on
transmitted packets. The value is true or false.

In Filter Raw Packet Cap

Indicates if the switch is capable of raw packet enforcement
on received packets. The value is true or false.

Out Filter Raw Packet Cap

Indicates if the switch is capable of raw packet enforcement
on transmitted packets. The value is true or false.
