UNIX Solaris
1

I want a solaris zone,wich can get ip from dhcp external server
i configure my zone

net:
    address not specified
    allowed-address not specified
    configure-allowed-address: true
    physical: vnic1
    defrouter not specified

vnic is linked to net0

dladm
net0                phys      1500   up       --
vnic1               vnic      1500   up       net0
prova2/vnic1        vnic      1500   up       net0

on zone i create vnic1

ipadm create-ip vnic1
ipadm create-addr -T dhcp  vnic1/v4

et voil�...nothing happen :confused:

Can someone help me please?
Thanks

Work with static address..but i can ping only global
zone and no external net
Of course i added route.

Impossible, to my knowledge, in Solaris 10 without an exclusive aka dedicated interface from the Global zone.

Please see:

It shows how to dedicate a physical interface.

We tried to do the same thing you are trying to do and we're not able to accomplish it.

Thanks,tomorrow i will try.

I follow this howto

http://www.alekz.net/archives/449

and make
on global zone
# dladm create-vnic -l net0 vnic1

zone is configured

ip-type: exclusive

net:
    address not specified
    allowed-address not specified
    configure-allowed-address: true
    physical: vnic1
    defrouter not specified

booting zone and configure as usual the ip

ipadm create-ip vnic1
ipadm create-addr -T static -a 192.168.0.222/24 vnic1/v4
route add default 192.168.0.1

and...
ping only the global zone :mad:

Can you paste a copy of the zone's xml? (/etc/zones) or

zonecfg -z ZONENAME export

both would do it.

ifconfig -a

and

netstat -rn

from the global and local would also possibly help.

I agree with plmachiavel. unless you set the zone as IP-exclusive and dedicate a physical nic to it you can't use DHCP.

Sure.

I forgot one important thing...global zone is a virtualbox
guest,probably is this the problem.

You could create a new NIC for the Global and then assign it to the local.

I can't help with virtualbox, I've never used it before. But again, to my opinion, you need a device dedicated to your local to accomplish what you're describing.
