Hi! I have a Solaris 11 local zone, everything is running fine, BUT, when I issue an "ipadm show-addr" from inside the local zone I get the following:
root@xxxxxxx:/var/opt# ipadm show-addr
ADDROBJ TYPE STATE ADDR
lo0/? inherited ok 127.0.0.1/8
ipmpPtsNet377/? inherited ok 172.28.77.25/24
NFSIPMP0/? inherited ok 192.168.115.165/24
lo0/? inherited ok ::1/128
Whats up with the "?" after the address objects?
This is all IPMP being fed up through the global zone. Local zone is in shared ip-type.
I believe it's just a name of the interface address object, generic created during zone boot.
Similar in global zone e.g net0/v4 for instance, where v4 can be anything you want.
For instance (in global zone or exclusive ip stack zone) :
ipadm create-addr -T static -a <IP you want to configure>/NETMASK net0/unixforums
I tried to delete the existing address and even just create a new one, but I always get:
ipadm: cannot create address: No such interface
Maybe this has something to do with the fact that the ipaddress config is passed to the local zone in the zonecfg?

Talked to a friend that has a large S11 install and this is normal. All the S11 local zones using shared-ip have their address objects come up this way.
