Not able to find the new NIC
I have a Sun Blade 2500 with SUN 5.9 OS installed. I have one NIC built-in which is working fine.

I insert another new NIC in the machine with four RJ45 connector options(means four NICs in one Card). The problem is i am not able to see the new NIC

Thanks

Haseeb,

First of all in solaris its ifconfig -a .. and you wont find the interface in ifconfig o/p until you plumb the interface .. if its solaris 10 onwards you can user dladm command. Else in solaris 9 you can see in /etc/path_to_inst

Hi all, I'm having some trouble identifying what route is being used to talk to a target host.
