The obvious reason is you are running Solaris 10 while the link is about Solaris 11, only with which arbitrary interface renaming is possible.

With Solaris 10, the interface prefix is always the one of the underlying driver. The suffix reflects the order of interface detection by the OS and stays that way unless reset.

To reset this ordering, the simplest and more secure way is probably to remove both NICs and clear the device mapping (devfsadm -c), then install the first card you want to be named igb0, reboot, run devfsadm and finally repeat the operation with the second card.

IFDHPowerICC(3SMARTCARD)				    Smartcard Library Functions 				  IFDHPowerICC(3SMARTCARD)

NAME
IFDHPowerICC - power up or power down the smart card SYNOPSIS
#include <smartcard/ifdhandler.h> RESPONSECODE IFDHPowerICC(DWORD Lun, DWORD Action, PUCHAR Atr, PDWORD AtrLength); PARAMETERS
The IFDHPowerICC() takes the following parameters: Input Lun Logical Unit Number Action Action to be taken AtrLength Maximum length of the ATR Output Atr Answer to Reset (ATR) value of the inserted card AtrLength Actual length of the ATR DESCRIPTION
The IFDHPowerICC() function controls the power and reset signals of the ICC (smart card) at the reader or slot specified by Lun. The Action parameter can take one of the following values: IFD_POWER_UP Power and reset the card. Return the ATR and its length. IFD_POWER_DOWN Power down the card. The Atr and AtrLength parameters are set to 0. IFD_RESET Perform a quick reset on the card. Return the ATR and its length. The IFD handler caches the ATR during a power up or reset and returns the ATR and its length in a call to IFDHGetCapabilities(3SMARTCARD). Memory cards without an ATR return IFD_SUCCESS on power up or reset but Atr and AtrLength are set to 0. RETURN VALUES
The following values are returned: IFD_SUCCESS Successful completion. IFD_ERROR_POWER_ACTION An error occurred while powering up or resetting the card. IFD_NOT_SUPPORTED The action specified by Action is not supported. IFD_COMMUNICATION_ERROR An error occurred. ATTRIBUTES
