It may contact that server, but you haven't verified the total amount or
type of traffic that is going to the server.
If you really want me to do that, I'll do it. But as said, IMHO just a
waste of time.
In this case, yes, it is.
And yes, the zone proxy in the global zone may need to make network
connections.
As long as it is the proxy in the global zone, I can live with it.
But still wondering, how pkg inside the zone talks to the proxy
outside/gets its packages ...
The short summary is, there's a private proxy server in the global zone
that non-global zones connect to. That proxy server does all of the
communication with outside sources and automatically caches package
content as its retrieved.
In older builds, non-global zones would connect directly to outside
sources to get package data.
In short, you'll need to wait until either the next build is released,
or until Solaris 11 GA.
