__Include: Charon-SSP V4.0.5 - Solaris Configuration of Dedicated Guest NIC in Cloud-Specific Products
Using the steps below, the Solaris guest system is configured to use the second NIC configured on the host system. Expected result (depending on security rules and firewalls): Do not forget that traffic transmitted across the Internet by the guest system is not encrypted by default. Take appropriate measures to protect your data. It is strongly recommended to protect the Solaris guest system by an appropriate firewall and security group configuration. If possible, any communication across the Internet should be encrypted (e.g., by using a VPN).# ifconfig <interface-name> <private-guest-nic-ip>/<netmask
(Solaris 10 example)
or
(Solaris 2.6 example)# ifconfig <interface-name> <private-guest-nic-ip>
netmask <mask>
Make permanent by editing /etc/hosts and set the new address for the systems hostname. Then edit /etc/netmask and add the netmask for the subnet-network.# route add default <default-gateway-of-cloud-lan> <metric>
Make permanent by editing /etc/defaultrouter and add the address of the gateway.# cp /etc/nsswitch.dns /etc/nsswitch.conf
or edit nsswitch.conf to use files dns for the hostname resolution.
