To Configure the Network Host Files by
Creating
/etc/hostname.ixgbe
#
Files
Note –
Use this procedure to configure the network host files permanently. The new
settings will be restored at each reboot.
1. Create a file named
/etc/hostname.ixgbe
#
for each ixgbe interface.
Where
#
is the interface’s instance number.
2. Edit the
/etc/hosts
file to include an IP address and host name for each
ixgbe
interface.
3. Boot the Solaris OS.
The
ixgbe
interfaces will be plumbed up automatically when you boot.

To Configure the Network Host Files Using the
ifconfig
Command
Note –
Use this procedure to configure the network host files dynamically on the
command line. At reboot, the settings will revert.
1. Create a file named
/etc/hostname.ixgbe
#
for each ixgbe interface, where
#
is the ixgbe interface instance number you plan to use.
For example, to bring up ixgbe0 at boot, create a file called
/etc/hostname.ixgbe0
, where 0 is the number of the ixgbe interface. If the
instance number were 1, the filename would be
/etc/hostname.ixgbe1
. The
/etc/hostname.ixgbe
#
file must contain the host name for the appropriate
ixgbe interface.
2. At the command line, use the
dladm
command to get the
ixgbe
instances:
The output might include lines similar to the following:
# dladm show-dev
ixgbe0 link: up speed: 10000 Mbps duplex: full
nge0 link: up speed: 1000 Mbps duplex: full
nge1 link: down speed: 0 Mbps duplex: unknown
ixgbe1 link: up speed: 10000 Mbps duplex: full
ixgbe2 link: up speed: 10000 Mbps duplex: full
