4. Software/Driver Configuration and Fine-tuning
4.1. Testing connectivity with ping and rping
Load the NIC, iWARP & core RDMA modules as mentioned in Software/Driver Loading
section. After which, you will see one or two ethernet interfaces for the T4 device. Configure
them with an appropriate ip address, netmask, etc. You can use the Linux ping command to test
basic connectivity via the T4 interface. To test RDMA, use the rping command that is included in
the librdmacm-utils RPM:
Run the following command on the server machine:
[root@host]# rping -s -a server_ip_addr -p 9999
Run the following command on the client machine:
[root@host]# rping -c –Vv -C10 -a server_ip_addr -p 9999
You should see ping data like this on the client:
ping data: rdma-ping-0: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqr
ping data: rdma-ping-1: BCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrs
ping data: rdma-ping-2: CDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrst
ping data: rdma-ping-3: DEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstu
ping data: rdma-ping-4: EFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuv
ping data: rdma-ping-5: FGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvw
ping data: rdma-ping-6: GHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwx
ping data: rdma-ping-7: HIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxy
ping data: rdma-ping-8: IJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
ping data: rdma-ping-9: JKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzA
