Solaris 11 brings some fantastic new networking features in the form of
Project Crossbow.
These features include virtual network interface cards (vnics) and
virtual switching (etherstubs), flows for controlling bandwidth and
network utilisation and more detailed analytics and observability
functions just to name a few. Along with these advanced new features,
many of our old favourites are enhanced to make life easier for the
already busy systems administrator.
Gone are the days of messing with /etc/hostname.* files to create
your IP multipath groups. Solaris 11 gives you a new command – ipadm –
to help you cut through all the tedium of setting up IPMP:
root@dinkum:/# ipadm create-ipmp ipmp0
root@dinkum:/# ipadm add-ipmp -i e1000g1 -i e1000g2 ipmp0
It really is as simple as that.
