[Gluster-devel] Re: Documentation related to get transport/socket working.

[Raghavendra G]

Forgot to mention that ib-verbs also takes option address-family.

option address-family [inet | inet6].

This is the address-family of the ip-address used to do initial handshake.
Once connection is established b/w client and server, ib-verbs is used for
data transfer.

A centipede was happy quite, until a toad in fun,
Said, "Prey, which leg comes after which?",
This raised his doubts to such a pitch,
He fell flat into the ditch,
Not knowing how to run.
