+Identifies the plugin to be used for infiniband network traffic accounting.
+The plugin is activated only when profiling on hdf5 files is activated and
+the user asks for network data collection for jobs through --profile=Network
+(or =All). The collection of network traffic data takes place on node level,
+hence only in case of exclusive job allocation the collected values will
+reflect the jobs real traffic. All network traffic data are logged on hdf5 files
+per job on each node. No storage on the Slurm database takes place.
