Additionally there is there is the `type: 'infiniband` setting accompanied by an `additional_config` key holding an `infiniband` key with the infinibad specific optioins, as you see in below example: + +``` +networking::connection::ipoib_network: + interface_name: 'ib0' + ipv4_method: 'manual' + ipv4_address: '192.168.1.16/24' + ipv4_gateway: '192.168.1.1' + ipv6_method: 'disabled' + type: 'infiniband' + additional_config: + infiniband: + mtu: 65520 + transport-mode: 'connected' +``` + ### Other Connection Types -NetworkManager also supports other types like `infiniband`, `wifi`, `vpn`, `bridge`, `vlan`, etc. Note that other types than `ethernet` have so far not been tested. Please contact us if you managed to set up some other network type or need help to do so. +NetworkManager also supports other types like `wifi`, `vpn`, `bridge`, `vlan`, etc. Note that other types than `ethernet` and `ethernet` have so far not been tested.
