+#              Use of PORTGUID for configuring the VNIC interface has an 
+#              advantage on hosts having more than 1 HCAs plugged in. As
+#              PORTGUID is persistent for given IB port, VNIC configurations
+#              would be consistent and reliable - unaffected by restarts of

+#
+#              On the downside, if HCA on the host is changed, VNIC interfaces
+#              configured with PORTGUID needs reconfiguration.
