Cause of NIC changes ...?

Hi , I came across a SUN server whereby it was installed with additional ethernet card. By right in any configuration, you would probably see the onboard ports Net0,Net1 and so on should correspond to e1000g0,e1000g1...
But instead the ext PCI takes precedence in the order and the Net0 becomes e1000g4 , Net 1 e1000g5 and so on.. Had a hard time troubleshooting untill snoop was run and confirmed that the NIC card was not faulty but instead the "port ordering" has changed. What could be the cause? Any help is much appreciated Smilie
