Impossible, to my knowledge, in Solaris 10 without an exclusive aka dedicated interface from the Global zone.

Please see:
https://www.unix.com/solaris/130824-how-make-zone-get-ip-external-dhcp-server.html

It shows how to dedicate a physical interface.

We tried to do the same thing you are trying to do and we're not able to accomplish it.

I follow this howto

http://www.alekz.net/archives/449

and make
on global zone
# dladm create-vnic -l net0 vnic1

zone is configured
Code:
ip-type: exclusive

net:
    address not specified
    allowed-address not specified
    configure-allowed-address: true
    physical: vnic1
    defrouter not specified

booting zone and configure as usual the ip
Code:
ipadm create-ip vnic1
ipadm create-addr -T static -a 192.168.0.222/24 vnic1/v4
route add default 192.168.0.1

and...
ping only the global zone Smilie

Can you paste a copy of the zone's xml? (/etc/zones) or
Code:
zonecfg -z ZONENAME export

both would do it.

Code:
ifconfig -a

and
Code:
netstat -rn

from the global and local would also possibly help.

I agree with plmachiavel. unless you set the zone as IP-exclusive and dedicate a physical nic to it you can't use DHCP.

I forgot one important thing...global zone is a virtualbox
guest,probably is this the problem.

You could create a new NIC for the Global and then assign it to the local.

I can't help with virtualbox, I've never used it before. But again, to my opinion, you need a device dedicated to your local to accomplish what you're describing.
