13 Infiniband Network

These metrics provide details on the throughput performance of each link (port-to-port connection) in the network, an aggregation of performance for Switch-to-Node and Switch-to-Switch link types, and total throughput performance of the network.

Linked Throughput

This is the throughput performance of each link (switch port to node/switch port connection) in the network

Switch GUID

This is the globally unique identifier of the switch in this link (the first switch, if both end points are switches).
