Title: DHCP over InfiniBand
State: Active
Authors: Vivek Kashyap
Group: IP over InfiniBand (ipoib)
Date: 2004-11-29
An InfiniBand network uses a link-layer addressing scheme that is 20-octets
long. This is larger than the 16-octets reserved for the hardware address
in DHCP/BOOTP message. The above inequality imposes restrictions on the use
of the DHCP message fields when used over an IP over InfiniBand(IPoIB)
network. This document describes the use of DHCP message fields when
implementing DHCP over IPoIB.
