44 Sun Quad FastEthernet 6U CompactPCI Adapter Installation and User’s Guide • June 2000
Using the instance examples in Step 2, the following example shows the four
/etc/hostname.qfeinstance files required for a system called zardoz, which has a
Sun Quad FastEthernet 6U CompactPCI adapter (zardoz-11, zardoz-12,
zardoz-13, and zardoz-14).
4. Create an entry in the /etc/inet/hosts file for each active qfe network
interface.
You must create an entry for each /etc/hostname.qfeinstance file you created in
Step 3.
Using the examples from Step 3, you would have:
Refer to the hosts(4) man page and the Solaris documentation for more information
about this file.
Note – The Internet protocol, version 6 (IPv6), expands the capabilities of IPv4,
which is the current and default version. The device driver included in the
Solaris operating environment supports both IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 uses the
/etc/inet/hosts configuration file, but IPv6 uses different configuration files. To
transition to, manage, and implement IPv6, refer to the Solaris System Administration
Guide, Volume 3.
