Solaris- How to scan newly attached NIC's
Hi folks,

How can I scan newly attached network interfaces to server without reboot?

Is there any command or something to scan without reboot.



Thanks

what do you mean by "newly attached"? depending on the solaris version, there are different commands...

But you still forget to explain what you mean with "newly attached".

In any case:
Code:
devfsadm -v
ifconfig -a plumb

should make your interface visible.

without plumbing :

Code:
devfsadm -v 

dladm show-dev
cat /etc/path_to_inst
