Synopsis: Adding a Second Ethernet Card to an X86 system
Date 22 Aug 1997
Description
How to add a second ethernet card to a Solaris system that was installed
with only one ethernet card.
Solution Summary
Things to do when adding a second ethernet card.
1) Make sure the IRQ and I/O address of the ethernet card does not clash
with any other card on the machine.
2) Choose name and internet address for the new card you are going to
add.
3) Create a file /etc/hostname.<I><N> where
I -> Name of interface. (ex, SMC, el, elx, iee etc.)
N -> Number of card, if the card with the same
interface is already present.
Here are two examples to illustrate,
If you have an SMC card and are now adding a Intel EtherExpress card as
your second interface. The filename will be /etc/hostname.iee0
If you have an SMC card and are now adding another SMC as your second
interface the filename will be /etc/hostname.smc1
4) Edit the file and enter the name of your second interface in the
file. This file will contain the name you have chosen for the second
interface.
5) Edit /etc/hosts file and make a <name> <internet address> entry for
the second interface.
6) Shutdown the system and plug in the network card.
7) Reboot the system with a b -r. This will reconfigure your system.
