Exclusive NIC for a Solaris Zone

By Baldwin Sung on September 26, 2008 4:21 PM | 0 Comments | 0 TrackBacks

By default, when you setup a Solaris Zone the ip-type will be set to shared.

Now, you can setup exclusive access to a Solaris Zone. This means only the Zone can communicate with the NIC. Even the global zone will NOT be able to communicate on the specified NIC.

You can use DHCP, static IPs and manage routing.

global# zonecfg -z myzone

zonecfg:myzone> set ip-type=exclusive

zonecfg:myzone> add net

zonecfg:myzone:net> set physical=bge1

zonecfg:myzone:net> end

zonecfg:myzone:>exit
