You're not wrong. On SPARC I use adb to modify the hostid. On both x86 and SPARC I insert lines at the end of /etc/rc2.d/S20sysetup so that they execute every time the machine boots.
Following below is a copy of the S20sysetup file from my SPARC system.
Again, I've not tested this code on Solaris 11 but it works great on Solaris 10.
All this stuff makes a good knowledge base for future readers and also means that you can help out on any hostid and lmgrd questions too. There doesn't seem to be too much knowledge about on this.

Hi, hoping someone can help, its been a while since I used Solaris.
After creating a NGZ (non global zone), the NGZ can access the GZ (Global Zone) and the GZ can access the NGZ (using ssh, zlogin)
However, the NGZ cannot access any other netwqork devices, it can't even see the default router

sysdef
sysdef(1M) System Administration Commands sysdef(1M)NAME
sysdef - output system definition
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/sysdef [-i] [-n namelist]
/usr/sbin/sysdef [-h] [-d] [-i] [-D]
DESCRIPTION
The sysdef utility outputs the current system definition in tabular form. It lists all hardware devices, as well as pseudo devices, system
devices, loadable modules, and the values of selected kernel tunable parameters.
It generates the output by analyzing the named bootable operating system file (namelist) and extracting the configuration information from
it.
The default system namelist is /dev/kmem.
OPTIONS -i Prints the configuration information from /dev/kmem. This is the default and only needs to be specified if the configura-
tion information from both /dev/kmem and the system file specified with the "-n namelist" option is needed.
-nnamelist Specifies a namelist other than the default (/dev/kmem). The namelist specified must be a valid bootable operating system.
-h Prints the identifier of the current host in hexadecimal. This numeric value is unique across all Sun hosts.
-d The output includes the configuration of system peripherals formatted as a device tree.
-D For each system peripheral in the device tree, display the name of the device driver used to manage the peripheral.
