Subcommands of the dladm command have either been created or modified to work with link names. For more detailed information about dladm subcommands, refer to the dladm(1M) man page.
Displays the device names and the physical attributes of each device. This subcommand displays the equivalent information as the show-dev subcommand. However, to leverage the use of link names, use the show-phys subcommand instead of the show-dev subcommand.

Displays information about available data links in the system.
Configures a VLAN in the network.
Lists existing VLANs in the network.
Removes an unused VLAN. A VLAN that is being used cannot be deleted.

Changes were also implemented on current dladm subcommands to enable the following operations to work with link names:
Creating link aggregations.
Administering autopush link properties.
