The ibstat command is utilized to display the operational status of InfiniBand Host Channel Adapters (HCAs). It provides detailed information, including the state (e.g., Active, Down), physical state (e.g., LinkUp, Polling), and link layer (e.g., InfiniBand, Ethernet) of each port on the HCA. This information is crucial for diagnosing connectivity issues and ensuring that the InfiniBand interfaces are functioning correctly.​
