You are tasked to reconfigure zone1 to use virtual interface vnic1 as its network interface.

* How to Reconfigure a Zone to Use a VNIC

1. Become an administrator.

2. Create the VNIC.

(C) 3. Change the zone's IP type from shared to exclusive.

4.Change the zone's interface to use a VNIC.

5. Verify and commit the changes you have implemented and then exit the zone.

(D) 6. Reboot the zone.

7. Log in to the zone.

8. Configure the VNIC with a valid IP address.

* Example. Reconfiguring a Zone Configuration to Use a VNIC

In this example, zone2 already exists as a shared zone. The zone also uses the primary interface of the system rather than a virtual link. You need to modify zone2 to use vnic2. To use vnic2, zone2's IP type must first be changed to exclusive. Note that some of the output is truncated to focus on the relevant information that relates to virtual networks.

global# dladm create-vnic -l net0 vnic2

global# zonecfg -z zone2

(C) zonecfg:zone1> set ip-type=exclusive

zonecfg:zone1> remove net physical=net0

zonecfg:zone1> add net

zonecfg:zone1:net> set physical=vnic2

zonecfg:zone1:net> end

zonecfg:zone1> verify

zonecfg:zone1> commit

zonecfg:zone1> exit

(D) global# zoneadm -z zone2 reboot

global# zlogin zone2

zone2# ipadm create-addr -a 192.168.3.85/24 vnic2
