How To Configure Crossover Connection between 2 Solaris Servers

Mar 21, 2013 3:02AM edited Mar 21, 2013 5:46AM in Oracle Solaris Networking (MOSC) 5 commentsAnswered

Hi,

I want to find out a procedure to configure a crossover connection between my 2 Servers...

I have all the resources in place. I've tried many posts but i'm still failing to establish this.

Any help?

I have connected my crossover cable on the bge1 interface on both servers and this is my ifconfig output:

Server 1

# ifconfig -a

lo0: flags=1000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 8232 index 1

inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000

bge0: flags=1000803<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2

inet 10.151.106.5 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 10.151.106.255

ether 8:0:6:1:5:38

bge1: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 3

inet 10.151.106.214 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 10.151.106.255

ether 8:0:6:1:15:38

Server 2

# ifconfig -a
