The RC connection is established with the DGID of the router (it's the

proxy.
I think I'm missing some fairly important concepts here.
Can you explain how RDMA works in this case? This is simply performing IP
routing, and not IB routing, correct? Are you referring to a protocol running
on top of IP or IB directly? Is the router establishing a second reliable
connection on the backend? Does it simply translate headers as packets pass
through in this case?
My focus so far has been trying to connection directly over IB, but using IP
addresses.
