Creating Oracle Solaris 11 Zones in a Domain
After creating the virtual NICs in Configuring Virtual NICs on Virtual Network Devices, create a zone that is associated with an available MAC address. For information about Oracle Solaris Zones, see Creating and Using Oracle Solaris Zones.
Use the zonecfg
command to specify a MAC address to use for a zone:
zonecfg:zone-name> set mac-address=[MAC-address,auto]
You can either specify a value of auto
to choose one of the available MAC addresses automatically or provide a specific alternate MAC address that you created with the ldm set-vnet
command.
