Troubleshooting Solairs 10 Network problems

recently I've setup a Solaris 10 box & am having network disruption, e.g. disconnects, interrupted pings, etc) when I
connect to it from another machine, how should I troubleshoot this !

The machine is a x86 box with 3 NICs (Differnet providors). The Current NIC is a Intel Gigabit, which is configured as DHCP. This NIC Can be reomved, the others are built-in & cna be disabled via the BIOS
tail /var/adm/messages revelas no messages logged during the network interpretions though does mention 'IRQ18 is shared' - [ I would like to how to troubleshoot IRQs ]

thanks in advance

Update:Read previously about dladm, though i'd love to know would this be a natural first step ?

#dladm show-dev
e1000g0 link:up speed: 100mb duplex:full
rge0 link: unknown speed:0mb duplex:unknown

You mentioned the box has 3 NICs but the system sees only 2 of them, and between those two, it looks like only e1000g0 is working. Is this the one you are having the disruption problem?
