Data solaris 10 wireless network setup
I installed solaris 10 x86 on my dell laptop on a partition alongside windows xp. I am able to connect to the internet in xp with both my ethernet local area connection as well as through my wireless network card. But, however i do not have clue as to how to go about it in solaris.

i did not get dhcp screen when installing solaris ( my wireless network was on then). Then i again tried reinstalling, when connected to LAN through the ethernet card. Again, i did not get the dhcp option while installing.

my ethernet card is Broadcom 440x 10/100 integrated controller
my wireless card is intel(r) pro/wireless 2200bg network connection.

i have the ip address of the router, dns address 1 & 2 and other data.

can you guys help me setup my solaris system to access the network. is there any free downloadable software for solaris which would help setup and monitor the network. my current wireless network has WEP protection.

thanks

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris	invokes  the  Solaris  Install	program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       384 MB

       512 MB

       tures available.
