Hey Guys, I was sitting in a boring conference and decided to bring by desktop forward to b137. Anyway, all went without incidence and I did wanted to try out the new nwam GUIs. Seems like nwam ignores /etc/hostname.xxx but the GUI etc looks good! Anyway, to go back to using my fixed /etc/hostname.igb0, I disabled nwam and re enabled network/physical:default. The onboard igb0 comes up fine (correct IP, netmask, etc) but I can't even ping my default router. Ping fails with "sendto: network unreachable" which seems to be the direct cause of arp not getting resolved which itself seems to be direct cause of no packets going out on the network.
Now the interesting part is if I disable network/physical:default the NIC starts working fine. dladm shows the link to be up, full duplex before and after. The log files for network/physical:default in /var/svc/log are normal and there are no console messages. Somehow enabling network/physical:default does something to NIC (standard intel motherboard NIC). Now I can start looking more but its beer time and I thought let me shoot this email and see if I missed some obvious changes as part of nwam or ipadm that went in in b136/b137. Hopefully things are going well for all.... Cheers, Sunay _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
