Free Practice Questions for NVIDIA NCP-AIN Exam

The correct utility isibnetdiscover.

From the official NVIDIA InfiniBand Utilities Guide:

"ibnetdiscover scans the fabric and returns a topology of all switches and end nodes, including their GUIDs, LIDs, port numbers, and link speeds."

It generates a fabric map with node-to-port relationships and shows:

GUIDs

LIDs (Local IDs)

Link speeds and widths

Switch-to-host connections

This is essential for network topology validation and mapping physical port additions.

Incorrect Options:

ib_check_routes– for routing table diagnostics.

ibhosts– shows host information but not switch-level port mapping.

ibswitches– shows switch info, but lacks port-level LID/link speed mapping.
