Network interfaces in solaris 10g guests
Dear all,
I installed solaris 10 on vm server but it doesn't recognize the virtual network interfaces in the system, i tried all the network command in the OS but no way i was able to solve it.
Please advice.
You can see all installed interfaces by running 'grep network /etc/path_to_inst'. An example:
grep network path_to_inst
"/node@1/pci@8,600000/network@1" 0 "ge"
"/node@1/pci@9,700000/network@1,1" 0 "eri"
"/node@1/pci@9,700000/pci@2/network@0" 0 "ce"
"/node@1/pci@9,700000/pci@2/network@1" 1 "ce"
"/node@1/pci@9,700000/pci@2/network@2" 2 "ce"
"/node@1/pci@9,700000/pci@2/network@3" 3 "ce"
"/node@1/pci@9,600000/network@2" 4 "ce"
shows, ge0, eri0, ce0 - ce4

Changing a Network Interface on Solaris 8
This is the joke:
1- Solaris 8 was first installed with a NIC not recognized by Solaris (in-board)
2- A compatible PCI Card has been installed (3Com 3C905B-TX).
3- Old Card has been desactived in the BIOS. No IRQ conflict.
4- At reboot, the Configuration Assistant recognizes the device...
5- At boot, the system does not manage to configure the interface.
The reason comes from that the interface is not recognized by
ifconfig (does not appear in result of "ifconfig -a").
The message "BAd File Number" is obtained with "ipconfig elxl0 plumb".
Questions: - Why?
- Is there a solution? (apart to reinstall the system...)
Hints:
- the interface should be named "elxl0"
(because it is the name of the 3Com interface on other Solaris PC's).
Is it right ????
- the driver name elxl does not appear in the PCI devices of "prtconf -D"
- but the file /kernel/drv/elxl exists !
Waiting for enlighting, thanks very much!!!!Try to change the network binding on the server
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc732472(WS.10).aspx
Try to delete the hidden network adapters as well.
Open Device Manager, from the File menu, expand the View and select the Show Hidden Devices option. This will enable and show any old un-used devices in the window

Intel network interface with Solaris 10 x86
Hi,
I have been Googling all evening to try and find a solution to this, but here is the problem:
I have a PC built around an Asus P4C800-E system board, and I have Solaris 10 x86 01/2006 installed. I would like to get the Ethernet interface (Intel adaptor, running on a CSA bus) up and running - but for some reason I can't seem to get the driver to bind to the proper address (pci8086,1019 - from what I have been able to find out): It instead insists on binding to pci1043,80f7. Even though pci8086,1019 is listed in /etc/device_aliases, it won't play nice.
I know the NIC is working, and have tried it under other OSes (including Linux).
Although Solaris x86 "sees" something there, and the interface is plumbed (it can even tell when the network link is up or down), I can't get the interface to work - pings do not work, etc.
Is there a way I can convince the driver to bind to pci8086,1019 instead of pci1043,80f7?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Is 1043,80f7 the device's pci subsystem vendor and subsystem device id?
And 8086,1019 is the normal vendor/device id?
In this case everything would work as expected.
What is listed by "/usr/X11/bin/scanpci -v" for the ethernet controller?

Try to boot the kernel with various settings of the "acpi-user-options" variable,
to disable / enable ACPI. In previous Solaris x86 releases, when
something went wrong configuring an interrupt vector for a nic device,
the typical end result is a nic that is unable to receive incomming
packets. Maybe your Asus P4C800-E is still problematic with ACPI, with
S10 x86 1/2006, and needs the acpi-user-options workaround.
http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/danasblog?anchor=configurin g_solaris_acpi_at_boot
To change the "acpi-user-options" variable, edit the grub boot command
line and edit the "multiboot" line, e.g. append "-Bacpi-user-options=0x2". -
Network Interface Configuration Solaris 7
Hi,
I'm new on Solaris platform. How does one change the gateway IP address to a new gateway IP address. I've tried "route change" command but no success. Any suggestion is very much appreciated.
Kala
Telikom PNG LtdChanging the IP address on a server can be quite involved if there are applications running on the server that "know" about the machines IP address ( typically databases ).
Ordinarily, if you are only changing the IP address you could use the ifconfig command. You might also need to change the netmask value.
Be careful, if your doing this remotely, say via telnet, once you run the ifconfig command and the IP changes, you will loose your connection to the server. It's best to try this sort of thing whilst your on the system console. If there is any mistake in your command and the interface is configured incorrectly or goes down, you will not be able to reconnect unless your on the system console.
If you want the IP address change to be persistent ie after reboots, you will need to edit the /etc/hosts file and add the new IP address in. If your using DNS and/or NIS/NIS+ then these files will also have to be changed. -

Solaris command to show all network interfaces in a server (plumb/unplumb)?
Hi there,
Is there a Solaris command to show all the network interfaces in a server
(plumb/unplumb etc...).
I have a V880 that has an eri0 on board, plumbed up. It also has a couple
of ge0, ge1, and ce0, and a qfe card.
ifconfig -a only shows eri0.
(I am using something like "dladm show-link", but this is really for
the link-aggregation).
How do I show the remaining network interfaces?
Thanks
TonyYou can see all installed interfaces by running 'grep network /etc/path_to_inst'. An example:

Getting the network interface up in solaris 10
Hi,
I am a solaris newbie and am trying to get the network interface up on solaris 10. I have set the required details in
/etc/hostname.if
/etc/hosts
/etc/inet/ipnodes
/etc/inet/netmasks
/etc/defaultrouter
yet on the startup i get a message "failed to bring up IPv4 interfaces : interfacename"
And when the server starts up after giving the command "ifconfig if up"
the network interface comes up.
I need to get the interface up on the startup itself.
can anyone help me on this ?????
Thanks in advance,... and of course, you need compatible hardware.
But you failed to tell anyone what Ethernet adapter you're trying to use.
Is it on the HCL ? http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/
If it requires third party driver software, did you install that as well ?
You failed to tell anyone whether you're installing to Solaris x86 or to Solaris SPARC.
( For example, a PeeCee NIC will generally just not work in a SPARC system. ) -
Solaris 10 u11 : Is it possible to mix IPMP with vertual network interface
Hi
I have a system with 4 Ethernet interfaces , I'd like to try to have virtual network interface on two of them . then configure IPMP between each two.
- Is it possible to mix IPMP and VNIC ?
- online , I found posts about having vnic on solaris by creating additional interface file (ex, /etc/hostname.bge0:1 ) and also the IPMP create such interface?
- How can I know which IPMP version installed on the system ? and how to know I'm reading the right configuration guide?
- on what basis should i choose the type of IPMP for my system (Link-based or Probe-based)
Thanks in advance
HEBAHi.
IPMP can coexist with VNIC.
IPMP - part of Solaris. So you not need check version of IPMP. Just read Docs for Solaris.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23823_01/html/816-4554/ipmptm-1.html#scrolltoc
It's not clear what Vnic you plan use. Is it VLAN or just additional IP on interface ?
For test address of IPMP you should configure interface like bge0:1 with additional options.
Regards. -
Cannot see network interface counters under Solaris 10 with Sun SMA

This happens consistently across all zones we have running. We can monitor traffic for a zone via the hwardware node SNMP daemon, but certainly seems like we should be able to also monitor network interface utilization via SNMP from any zone as well.
Has anyone encountered this / know of a fix or workaround for this? We have a valid Sun support contract but they unfortunately have been REALLY BAD about answering questions related to the SMA Net-SNMP agent thus far.

Trying to set network interface at 100/full on Solaris 11
Hi all,
I hope someone can help me.
I've built two boxes running Solaris 11 in my lab. Connected to a hub, all seemed well.
Now, I've connected them to the network here and I'm having the following issue, The machines should be connecting to the network at 100Mbps/full. Instead, it seems they are trying to connect at 10Mbps/full, which is causing a problem.
When I check the speed on the NIC (interface=net2), speed is set to 10Mb :
dladm show-linkprop net2
Returns speed=10.
PROPERTY PERM VALUE
speed r- 10
As you can see from the above, permission is set to read only.
When I try to set the link speed as follow :
dladm set-linkprop -p speed=100 net2
I get the following error
'Cannot set link property speed on net2 - operation not supported.'
Which I assume is because of the read-only property/
I have also tried setting the property old-style with ndd :
/usr/sbin/ndd -set /dev/<device-name> adv_100fdx_cap 1
And get 'Operation not supported'.
And finally, I've entered the settings in /etc/system itself (and rebooted) :
set net2:adv_100fdx_cap=1
All to no avail.
Note the following blog post I've found here indicating someone else had issues with mode/speed in Solaris 11 (unfortunately I'm still stumped!) :
http://blog.thilelli.net/post/2011/02/19/Solaris-11-Express%3A-Problem-6
My networks man is adamant that the network settings are correct, i.e. the network is set to 100Mbps, and looking at his switch settings he seems to be correct.
Does anyone have any ideas as to where I can go from here? Much appreciated....Despite what your site's network staff have said, this is likely to be their issue.
If you are connecting to a managed switch, that entire peripheral may have specific settings on some or all of its ports.
I suggest you let that switch do whatever it expects to do and remove all customizations to your NIC's configuration. Let it auto-negotiate.
You should also ignore that link you have in your initial post. The ERI network interface that is described there was a very specific network chipset and used on a very small specific number of Sun SPARC boxes. It was known to have issues with proper negotiation (it would usually work but sometimes just get mucked up).

Install solaris via jumpstart with 2 network interfaces
Hi guys,
I'm trying to deploy Solaris 10 on a LDOM , using Jumpstart server. The LDOM must have 2 network interfaces and 2 default routes. Here's the relevant part of sysidcfg file:
network_interface=vnet0 {primary
hostname=aaaaaaaaa
ip_address=aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa
netmask=255.255.240.0
protocol_ipv6=no
default_route=bbb.bbb.bbb.bbb
network_interface=vnet1 {
hostname=bbbbbbbbbbb
ip_address=ccc.ccc.ccc.ccc
netmask=255.255.248.0
protocol_ipv6=no
default_route=ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd
}After {ok} boot net - install, I get these messages:
Using RPC Bootparams for network configuration information.
Attempting to configure interface vnet1...
Skipped interface vnet1
Attempting to configure interface vnet0...

The route ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd could not be added at this time. If you wish to accept
the route provided, the route will be added to the /etc/defaultrouter file
to be used at reboot. If you choose not to accept your choice, you will be
asked to enter network information again for this interface.
Accept Route
────────────
[X] Yes
[ ] NoAfter I choose "yes" , the installation goes back to unattended (automated) state.
Any ideas why installation breaks when adding second default route?
If I delete the line default_route=ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd, the installation is not interrupted.
Many thanks,
kido
Edited by: kido on Dec 29, 2010 6:10 PMHello again,
First of all, if I delete the second default route from sysidcfg, the installation performs uninterrupted, but vnet1 is not brought up after reboot. I get a message like: vnet1 is not a valid interface name...or something similar...
Regarding multiple default routes now... As long as "man defaultrouter" and "man sysidcfg" state that multiple routes are supported, I would expect this to work...or at least I need a way of installing 2 NICs without human intervention...
I will try to use some post install script instead ( will create /etc/hostname.vnet1 and add second route to /etc/defaultrouter) and will let you know the results. -
Oracle 10g RAC - public network interface down
Hi all,
I have a question about Oracle RAC and network interface.
We're using Oracle 10gR2 RAC with two nodes on Linux Red Hat.
Let's assume that the public network interface goes down.
I would like to know what happens with existing connections
on node with network interface with problems.
Are connections frozen, actives?
Can the users continue to use theses existing connections using the another node of RAC?
I know that the listener goes down and any other connections is allowed.
Thank you very much!!!!Tads wrote:

You should spend some time in a test lab where you can test this stuff for yourself. Read the documentation and there are tons of sites out there that purport to have all of your RAC/TAF/FAN/FAF questions. - I would read and trust the documentation first.

Fake Network Interface - What Is It, and How Do I Get It?
I'm in the process of setting up Linux-VServer, which supports OS level virtualization. It's like running a VM, only instead of using an abstraction layer to create fake hardware and host another OS, the kernel just runs multiple userspaces and makes sure they don't touch anything they're not supposed to.
Anyway, like many VM solutions, networking is a bit funky. They create fake interfaces that seem to exist only in the kernel, then use iptables to mask them with NAT so it still works on a network. The trick is that I'm not sure how they're creating fake interfaces, so I don't know how to replicate it on Arch. Here's a page describing the process: http://linux-vserver.org/Networking_vserver_guests
On Debian, they add this to /etc/network/interfaces:
auto dummy0
iface dummy0 inet static
address 192.168.1.250
netmask 255.255.255.0
What are they using to make this work? Is there a good way to replicate it under Arch?
Last edited by arew264 (2009-03-26 03:18:19)I ran `ip addr add 192.168.1.4/24 dev eth0 label eth0:1`, which adds an IP address to eth0.
This works better than the solution the vserver wiki recommends because I can give the guest a public IP address.
Is there a way to do this in /etc/rc.conf or the network daemon?

How can I set ne2000 network adapter in Solaris 8 for x86
I am a beginner. I can not set a ne2000 compatible network adapter(isa) in Solaris 8 for x86.
I do follows:
write the file ' /kernel/drv/nei.conf ' with ' name="nei" parent="isa" reg=0x1,0x0300,0x1f interrupts=10 '
and use the command: drvconfig -i nei --failed
use the command: drv_add -i nei; devlinks; --there is no the command drv_add
use the command: touch /reconfigure; reboot
after reboot, use the command: ifconfig nei0 plumb --failed
Did I miss something obvious, or what driver should I use?After backing up the suspect hard drive, I ran Disk Repair on it and found no problems. Then ran Disk Warrior again and no problems. It is a Hitachi, btw.
As for the PrefPane issue: Repairing disk permissions on the main volume and on the partition that holds the system did not make any difference.
Reinstalled the 10.5.8 upgrade, performed safe start and then repaired permissions again. Still getting a blank PrefPane for network.
Next step is to try and trash the System Configuration plist and Network Interfaces plist. -
Smf / sometimes does not configure network interfaces in single-user mode?
From http://groups.yahoo.com/group/solarisx86/message/14785
When booting into single user mode, I often get a message
on the console
t_optmgmt: System error: Cannot assign requested addressand only the loopback interface is configured (lo0 inet, and lo0 inet6).
The system's dnet0 interface is not plumbed any more. Configuration
for the dnet0 network interface is via a static ip address; hostname
in /etc/hostname.dnet0, and and ip v4 address for that hostname in
/etc/hosts. This was a Solaris 10 x86 system, but the same problem
has also been observed on Solaris 10 sparc, and the hme0
interface.
svcs -x in single-user mode reports no problems.
Changing to multi-user mode by typing Ctrl-D still does not
configure the real network interface.
One thing that I've noticed is that smf's log file
/etc/svc/volatile/network-physical:default.log
is missing, when the nic interface was not configured.
It seems that the problem with unconfigured network interfaces
does not happen when I boot directly into multi-user mode.

booting into single user mode on S10 b69?Hi everyone,

6. etc/resolv.conf
domain myhost.com
nameserver: 172.19.16.12
nameserver: 172.19.16.13
still domain name has't been set, i just wrote this, can anyone tell me how to find the domain name or create one. also the name server is just a fake, but how to find one. If i will be connecting my laptop to various IP whereever i go, so do i need to configure network setting again and again ? isn't there any auto network configuration so that i can connect internet where ever i go and let the system auto configure network settings like in windows XP auto IP configuration detect.
7. etc/nsswitch.conf
in this i can't see "hosts: files" but i could see rest of the details. so I inserted "hosts: files dns" in the third line and saved.
I ran the following command in the terminal to find the details:
#ypmatch host-name hosts
ypmatch: the domainname hasn't been set on this machine
(how to set domain name can anyone tell me?)
#move/etc/netmasks: not found
#uname -n
HOME
#cat/etc/nsswitch.conf
cat/etc/nsswitch.conf: not found
#domain name
domain: not found
#ypwhich
ypwhich: the domainname has'nt been set to this machine
#nismatch nameserver-name hosts.org-dir
hosts.org-dir: Error in accessing NIS+ cold file.......is NIS+ installed?
actually during installation i selected DNS type for network giving a wrong nameserver and domain got skipped later
#getent ipnodes dns (no response)
so all these things i did and found by seeing the forum guidelines. I can see the network connection has receivinh and sent packets seems to be working but can't browse internet, also can't ping a website.
if anyone had the same problem but found the answer than kindly let me know. I am new to solaris but i am trying my best.
awaiting reply from gurus
bye for now.................
