Solaris 11 booting from the cd and networking

User_UNXVVMay 4 2012 — edited May 4 2012
Hi folks,

I need to do a sort of rescue operation such that I need to boot Solaris 11 on a T4-1 from a cd, and then get basic networking configured. I have used netcfg to set up net0, my routing table looks good, and an ifconfig -a gives reasonable output, but I still cannot access anything on the network. Can someone post steps to do such a process?

Here's some specific info regarding what I am seeing:

root@solaris:/root# netstat -rn

Routing Table: IPv4
Destination Gateway Flags Ref Use Interface
