Hello Jianyu,

To configure MVAPICH2 use the TCP/IP interface, please follow the
instructions available at the following link

http://mvapich.cse.ohio-state.edu/support/user_guide_mvapich2-2.0b.html#x1-190004.11

To run applications using the TCP/IP interface, please follow the
instructions available at the following link

http://mvapich.cse.ohio-state.edu/support/user_guide_mvapich2-2.0b.html#x1-400005.2.9

If you configure the MVAPICH2 library to use the TCP/IP interface, it will
automatically disable the use of OpenFabrics (IB/iWARP) features. You can
still use the OpenFabrics interface in IP over IB mode (just like a high
performance GigE adapter).

Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Regards,
Hari.
