If you bind to 127.0.0.1, can you ever connect off of the local system? My assumption is that if you bind to 127.0.0.1, then any connection must be to a local address. >When you actually connect and resolve the route we need to put the >IP address of the IB device in there, since that the only way the passive side >will know what our IP address is. > >> And you're reserving ... the specified port number? > >Yes, in the sense that another bind to this same port on >same IP address will fail. This is the important piece that's missing, and should be integrated with port assignment. - Sean _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list [email protected] http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
