My problem is resolved. First of all thanks to all who gave me kind support.

I am sorry. My NVram was not inserted.

After insert my NVram again i was again not able to see my MAC address. What i did, I added the below line in /etc/rc2 then i was able to see the MAC after running the command ifconfig -a

The line which i inserted under /etc/rc2

Code:

ifconfig bge0 ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

Not definitely sure if this is the right solution.

Try in OK prompt...

HTML Code:

prtconf -pv |grep local-mac-address

Should be set to true. Next thing is that you don't have set the same router IP, principially this can be the this case.
Check your /etc/defaultrouter file if there are listed right addresses.
Eventually change your default route table via route command on the fly.
