In your zone configuration, did you set ip-type as "exclusive" ?

No, i didn't set ip-type as "exclusive"

what i always made is
Code:
 
zonecfg:email-zone> add net
   zonecfg:email-zone:net> set address=10.0.0.1
  zonecfg:email-zone:net> set physical=eri0
  zonecfg:email-zone:net> end


but for configure to get ip from dhcp server i don't how

You can't configure a virtual interface to use dhcp. An exclusive ip stack is a requirement.

hi all
Code:
zonecfg:apache> set ip-type=exclusive
zonecfg:apache> add net
zonecfg:apache:net> set physical=e1000g
zonecfg:apache:net> end

is that the correct step to configure zone to get ip from external DHCP server

You got it right!

That implies you have a spare physical interface (here e1000g) to dedicate to your zone.
