I have to become a Solaris and Cisco guru.

I now have to configure 4 network interfaces within the zones, but I only have two physical NICs. With anet, I can only create a temporary VNIC that will disappear when the zone is shutdown. I need permanent VNICs working in the zones. So far, I haven't found a solution.

This is only for the test machine, but I need to make it work as a proof of concept.

Assuming Solaris 11?

Create all the required VNICS in the global-zone, and then assign an exclusive IP through onto the zone using those new vnics. (Also ensure nwam of off).

Use need to use dladm, not anet.

Also, this may have some good tips. (The article is how to simulate a multi-domain/multi-site cloud setup on 1 box with Zones and Crossbow).
