Help understanding [daemon.warning] messages in /var/adm/messages

Hi

I've been using solaris for a few days now. During the install process i had some problems configuring my nic as i needed to install a third-party driver, which i got from a a linked site from the Sun Device Detector tool a ran prior to installing. I got it working eventually, but i'm seeing these warning messages in the log file /var/adm/messages:

     	 	 	 	 	 	  /sbin/dhcpagent[63]: [ID 778557 daemon.warning] configure_v4_lease: no IP broadcast specified for ife0, making best guess

The network is working fine and when i boot/reboot dhcp is set correctly but i'm worried these warnings mean my network is misconfigured in some way. Can anyone tell me what these messages mean and if i need to change anything in my configuration?

This is a rather annoying message because you have not specified a broadcast address, but as have got an IP address for your host and a subnet mask from DHCP then the dhcpagent can calculate the broadcast address for itself (that is what computers are supposed to be for after all!?) so you can safely ignore the annoying messages or else specify the broadcast address for the DHCP scope if your DHCP server allows and add option 28 (Broadcast, IP) to the list specified in the /etc/default/dhcpagent file.
