Configuring Solaris networking

Found this useful link that explains how to configure networking on Solaris both using the newer NWAM and standard networking methods:

https://www.opensolaris.org/jive/message.jspa?messageID=197639


The important bits! - some simple examples:

Set Default gateway:

#echo "10.0.0.1"> /etc/defaultrouter

NWAM settings:

Set a static IP
#echo "nge0 static 10.0.0.3/8"> /etc/nwam/llp

Enable NWAM
#svcadm disable svc:/network/physical:default
#svcadm enable svc:/network/physical:nwam

Configure DNS
#svcadm disable svc:/network/dns/client:default
# echo "nameserver 10.0.0.1">> /etc/resolv.conf
# cp /etc/nsswitch.dns /etc/nsswitch.conf
# svcadm enable svc:/network/dns/client:default
