Sync neutron-mlnx-agent and neutron-eswitchd containers. Configure additional containers.
To create an InfiniBand based network:
openstack network create --provider-physical-network ibphysnet --no-share --provider-network-type vlan --disable-port-security --internal --provider-segment N infiniband-pN-network
Where provider segment N matches an existing defined PKey within UFM. Note this example allows PKeys 1 through 10.
