Manual FIX IP and Change Hostname on Solaris 11

1. Switch From Automatic Network Configuration Mode to Manual Network Configuration Mode
   
# netadm enable -p ncp DefaultFixed

2. Verify that DefaultFixed profile is applied
   
# netadm list
netadm: DefaultFixed NCP is enabled;
automatic network management is not available.
'netadm list' is only supported when automatic network management is active.

3. Determine the interface that you want to configure
   
# dladm show-phys

4. Configure the vmxnet3s0 interface
   
# ipadm create-ip net0
# ipadm create-addr -T static -a 192.168.1.10/24 vmxnet3s0/v4

5. Verify
   
# ipadm show-addr
ADDROBJ           TYPE     STATE        ADDR
lo0/v4            static   ok           127.0.0.1/8
vmxnet3s0/v4      static   ok           192.168.1.10/24
lo0/v6            static   ok           ::1/128
   
root@solaris:~# dladm show-link
LINK                CLASS     MTU    STATE    OVER
net0                phys      1500   up       --

6. Add default route
   
# route -p add default 192.168.1.1

7. Add DNS Name Server
   
root@solaris:~# svccfg -s dns/client
svc:/network/dns/client> setprop config/nameserver = (8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4)
svc:/network/dns/client> listprop config
config                      application
config/value_authorization astring     solaris.smf.value.name-service.dns.client
config/nameserver          net_address 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
svc:/network/dns/client> exit

root@solaris:~#
root@solaris:~# svcadm refresh dns/client
root@solaris:~# svcadm restart dns/client

8. Set name service switch
   
root@solaris:~# svccfg -s name-service/switch
svc:/system/name-service/switch> setprop config/host = "files dns"
svc:/system/name-service/switch> listprop config
config                      application
config/default             astring     files
config/value_authorization astring     solaris.smf.value.name-service.switch
config/printer             astring     "user files"
config/host                astring     "files dns"
svc:/system/name-service/switch> exit

9. Testing
   
root@solaris:~# ping google.com
google.com is alive

10. Change Hostname
root@solaris:~# svccfg <
select /system/identity:node
#listprop config
setprop config/nodename="newhost"
setprop config/loopback="newhost"
refresh
