The information in this chapter describes interface configuration starting with the Solaris 10 1/06 release. For a complete listing of new Oracle Solaris features and a description of Oracle Solaris releases, refer to Oracle Solaris 10 9/10 What’s New.
In Solaris 10 1/06, the following new features were introduced:
The new dladm command for viewing interface status is introduced in How to Configure a Physical Interface After System Installation.
VLAN support has extended to GLDv3 interfaces, as explained in Administering Virtual Local Area Networks.
Link aggregation support is introduced in Overview of Link Aggregations.
In Solaris 10 7/07, the /etc/inet/ipnodes becomes obsolete. Use /etc/inet/ipnodes only for earlier Solaris 10 releases, as explained in the individual procedures.
