Add another network in Solaris 11
If it is virtual machine then you can add new network via VMware
and Check for newly added network on server, Like I got "net1"
as shown below:
# dladm show-phys
LINK MEDIA STATE SPEED DUPLEX DEVICE
net0 Ethernet up 1000 full e1000g0
net1 Ethernet unknown 0 unknown e1000g1
#Now create a new interface using that and check if it is visible
now.
# ipadm create-ip net1
# dladm show-phys
LINK MEDIA STATE SPEED DUPLEX DEVICE
net0 Ethernet up 1000 full e1000g0
net1 Ethernet up 1000 full e1000g1

# route -p add -net 192.168.2.151/24 -gateway 192.168.2.1
# netstat -nr
