Configuring networking interfaces on Solaris 10
Hi,
I am trying to configure an ip address, netmask, and default gateway on my solaris machine. For example, in Linux I would do the following command:
#ifconfig eth0 xx.xx.xx.xx netmask 255.0.0.0
#add route or route add default xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
In Solaris 10, I believe the commands are similar, but I don't know what my interface is (in the example above it was eth0), but in Solaris 10, I can't figure out what it is. Can someone provide me steps on how to set up my network interface on Solaris 10?
Thanks in advance for your help

route.conf
ROUTE.CONF(5) BSD File Formats Manual ROUTE.CONF(5)
NAME
route.conf -- static routes config file
DESCRIPTION
The route.conf file is read by the staticroute rc.d script during system start-up and shutdown, and is intended for adding and removing
static routes.
FILE FORMAT
Lines starting with a hash ('#') are comments and ignored. Lines starting with a plus sign ('+') are run during start-up, while lines start-
ing with a minus sign ('-') are run during system shutdown. If a line starts with a '!', the rest of the line will get evaluated as a shell
script fragment. All other lines are passed to route(8). During start-up, they are passed behind a ``route add -'' command and during shut-
down behind a ``route delete -'' command.
FILES
/etc/route.conf The route.conf file resides in /etc.
/etc/rc.d/staticroute
rc.d(8) script that parses route.conf.
EXAMPLES
In this example, the interface for the desired routing changes is set, the IP address on that interface is determined, and a route is added
during startup, or deleted during system shutdown.
# Set interface and determine current IP address for added route.
!ifname=bnx0
!ipaddr=$(/sbin/ifconfig ${ifname} | awk '$1 == "inet" {print $2}')
net 10.10.1 -interface ${ipaddr}
In this example, IP forwarding is turned on during start-up, and a static route added for 192.168.2.0. During system shutdown, the route is
removed and IP forwarding turned off.
# Turn on/off IP forwarding.
+sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1
-sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=0
net 192.168.2.0 -netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.150.2
