bring up/down numerous interfaces

On a Solaris 9 system I had something happen to some of my interfaces; for some reason half of them went down. Since I have over 30 different Virtual IP's (or logical IP's) up on ce10 I don't want to take the time to find out which ones are up and which ones are down or even run the addif command 30+ different times to up the interface.

I just want to down them all, then up them all while on the console.

Anyone know of a command to accomplish this all in one easy step or a start-up script I could run?

for instance my /etc/hostname.ce10 has over 30 entries that look like this
addif <hostname> netmask + broadcast + up

wc -l /etc/hostname.ce10
35
