Abstract

Most data centers have IP based applications which are often executed on top of high speed and low latency interconnection technologies like the InfiniBand. It is achieved by following a protocol called IP over InfiniBand (IPoIB). To develop and test new techniques that depend on IPoIB protocol, a network simulation model for IPoIB is desired. In this work, an IPoIB simulation model based on OMNeT++ framework has been designed. This simulation model also supports InfiniBand quality of service (QoS) and InfiniBand network partitions. Simulation results, validated against physical systems, show the accuracy of the proposed model.
