i would say you have 2 network cards (with two ports each) and 4 onboard networkinterfaces. the output of "prtdiag -v" would be helpfull to know more.
from "ifconfig" you can see there are only two interfaces (e1000g0 and 1) configured with vlan tagging. the other interfaces are connected (not e1000g4 and 5) but not configured with an ip address.
but your machine might be a cluster (or something else...) which uses the interfaces in an other way...

NAME
ixgbe - Intel 10Gb PCI Express NIC Driver
SYNOPSIS
/dev/ixgbe*
DESCRIPTION
The ixgbe Gigabit Ethernet driver is a multi-threaded, loadable, clonable, GLD-based STREAMS driver supporting the Data Link Provider
Interface, dlpi(7P), on Intel 82598 10-Gigabit Ethernet controllers.
The ixgbe driver functions include controller initialization, frame transmit and receive, promiscuous and multicast support, and error
recovery and reporting.
The ixgbe driver and hardware support auto-negotiation, a protocol specified by the IEEE 802.3ae specification.
APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE
The cloning character-special device, /dev/ixgbe, is used to access all Intel 82598 10 -Gigabit Ethernet devices installed within the
system.
The ixgbe driver is managed by the dladm(1M) command line utility, which allows VLANs to be defined on top of ixgbe instances and for
ixgbe instances to be aggregated. See dladm(1M) for more details.
You must send an explicit DL_ATTACH_REQ message to associate the opened stream with a particular device (PPA). The PPA ID is interpreted as
an unsigned integer data type and indicates the corresponding device instance (unit) number. The driver returns an error (DL_ERROR_ACK) if
the PPA field value does not correspond to a valid device instance number for the system. The device is initialized on first attach and de-
initialized (stopped) at last detach.
The values returned by the driver in the DL_INFO_ACK primitive in response to your DL_INFO_REQ are:
o Maximum SDU is 16366.
o Minimum SDU is 0.
o DLSAP address length is 8.
o MAC type is DL_ETHER.
o SAP (Service Access Point) length value is -2, meaning the physical address component is followed immediately by a 2-byte SAP
component within the DLSAP address.
o Broadcast address value is the Ethernet/IEEE broadcast address (FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF).
Once in the DL_ATTACHED state, you must send a DL_BIND_REQ to associate a particular SAP with the stream.
CONFIGURATION
By default, the ixgbe driver performs auto-negotiation to select the link speed and mode. Link speed and mode can only be 10000 Mbps full-
duplex. See the IEEE802.3 standard for more information.
