That firmware is too old. Can you investigate?
Older Linux releases will create the broadcast group, but the preferred
mechanism uses the Subnet Manager to set the broadcast group parameters.
[Perhaps we can continue this discussion off the aliases.]

We are using original firmware came with Box. Do I have to update
firmware to support new Sun IB cards.
BTW, Mellanox cards were working fine with RHEL 4 ?? Do I need login
to access CISCO sites??
Thankx a lot

Topspin was bought by Cisco and that switch is now called the Cisco

using this firmware version or later?

I will try to setup FFFF partition through management interface.

This is the current config ...

You need to configure the "broadcast" group in the FFFF
partition. What is the make and model number of the switch that
you are using?
By the way, switches with built-in Subnet Managers that are
running reasonably recent versions will automatically create the
"broadcast" group for the FFFF partition. If you are using the
OFED Subnet Manager running on a Linux server, it should also
create the group for the FFFF partition. In all cases, if that is
not happening automatically, there are commands through the
management interface for the Subnet Manager that can be used to
setup the "broadcast" group.
