Configure an Active-Standby IPMP Group

1. Create an IPMP interface

              ipadm create-ip net1

              ipadm create-ip net2

              ipadm create-ipmp ipmp0

2. Add the physical interfaces net1 and net2 to the ipmp group.

              ipadm add-ipmp -i net1 -i net2 ipmp0

3. Assign the test IP address for the interface for probe-based failure detection

              ipadm create-addr -T static -a 192.168.1.10/24 net1

              ipadm create-addr -T static -a 192.168.1.11/24 net2

4. Assign IP address to ipmp interface

              ipadm create-addr -T static -a 192.168.1.9/24 ipmp0

5. Configure one of the physical interface as standby interface (here net2)

              ipadm set-ifprob -p standby=on -m ip net2

6. Check the staus of the IPMP interfaces:

              ipmpstat -a

              ipmpstat -g

              ipmpstat -t

Create an aggregation and assign IP address

1. create a aggregated network port using two physical interface

              dladm create-aggr -l net1 -l net2 aggr0

2. View the aggreation details

              dladm show-aggr

3. View the aggreation link

              dladm show-link

4. Create/plumb the aggr interface
              ipadm create-ip aggr0

5. Create a IP address in the aggreated link

              ipadm create-addr -T static -a 192.168.1.9/24 aggr0/v4

6. View the IP details

              ipadm show-addr

7. Print information about the interfaces that are attached to the system.
              ipadm show-if

Active-Standby IPMP Group in Solairs 10

1. Plumb the Physical testa interface
              ifconfig e1000g0 plumb

2. Assign the testa IP address to the testa interface
              ifconfig e1000g0 192.168.2.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast + up   (OR)
              ifconfig e1000g0 192.168.2.10/24 broadcast + up

3. Create a IPMP group named failover with testa interface               ifconfig e1000g0 group failover

4. Add the testa interface to IPMP group named failover                                             ifconfig e1000g0 addif 192.168.2.9 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.2.255 -failover deprecated up

5. Add the testb interface to IMPMP group named failover as standby

                            ifconfig nxge0 plumb 192.168.2.11 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.2.255 group failover deprecated -failover standby up

6. Add the below configuraiont in the mentioned files
                /etc/hostname.e1000g0                                 Judi-dev-001-testa/24 broadcast + group failover -failover deprecated up addif Judi-dev-001/24 broadcast + up
                /etc/hostname.nxge0                                 Judi-dev-001-testb/24 broadcast + group failover -failover deprecated up standby

Network driver version

Verify the Driver Version (Oracle Solaris 11)

              strings /kernel/drv/<arch>/igb | grep igb 

              where arch is amd64 for 64-bit Intel systems or sparcv9 for Oracle SPARC systems.

              strings /kernel/drv/sparcv9/ixgbe  | grep ixgbe

                            ixgbe 1.1.59

                                          If the version number is not at least 1.1.9, you must install the latest driver, 

              strings /kernel/drv/sparcv9/igb  | grep igb

                            igb 2.3.19

                                          If the version number is not 2.2.2 or later, you must install the latest driver,
