[Lustre-discuss] Seeking LNET router recomendations

[Cliff White]

Or to put it another way, if your OSS systems can already 'see' both IB and
IPoIB networks the most cost
effective, high performance solution would be to add the necessary
interface and put your MDS/MGS on both networks also.
No need for routers, no performance impact.
