I have an infiniband network adapter installed, and with ifconfig command, I can get config for the infiniband interface.In Redfish world, which resource shall I implement in order to show the ipaddress or P-Key information of the infiniband interface?

EthernetInterface is really intended for simple devices; more complex network adapters are better suited in the Advanced Communication Devices model. You can take a look at the supporting slideware found here: www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/Redfish_School-Advanced_Communication_Devices_%28ACD%29.pdfHowever, the current state of the model isn't covering the Infiniband or Fibre Channel technologies. We are currently receiving input for extending the definition for Fibre Channel support, but we still have a gap for Infiniband. We're certainly welcome to input for how to extend the model to accommodate Infiniband, but for the time being extensions would need to live in the OEM space of the model.
