Preface The GRF is a high-performance switched IP Router which provides high-speed data communication links between IBM RS/6000 SP and external networks or hosts. It acts as a special-purpose SP node that routes IP traffic between SP nodes on the SP Switch and the outside world. Connected directly to the SP Switch, the router offers significantly improved SP I/O performance. When packaged with an IBM SP system, the GRF router is referred to as the SP Switch Router.
