Hi all:

I'm trying to bridge a couple of physical links and assign an ipaddr to the 
resulting bridge.  I'm not very familiar with OpenSolaris bridging, and would 
appreciate any help.

My system has the following:

# dladm show-phys
LINK         MEDIA                STATE      SPEED  DUPLEX    DEVICE
igb0         Ethernet             up         1000   full      igb0
igb1         Ethernet             unknown    0      half      igb1

I bridge them with:

# dladm create-bridge -l igb0 -l igb1 pmi_if
# svcadm enable pmi_if
# [ network/bridge:pmi_if starting (bridge) ]

# dladm show-bridge
BRIDGE      PROTECT ADDRESS            PRIORITY DESROOT
pmi_if      stp     32768/0:25:90:2:9b:6e 32768 32768/0:25:90:2:9b:6e
# dladm show-bridge -l pmi_if
LINK        STATE       UPTIME  DESROOT
igb0        discarding  0       32768/0:25:90:2:9b:6e
igb1        disabled    0       0/0:0:0:0:0:0

And now I'm not sure what to do.  I want to assign an ipaddr to the pmi_if0 
interface.

# ifconfig pmi_if0 dhcp
ifconfig: Aug 24 08:10:12  /sbin/dhcpagent[100422]: insert_pif: SIOCGLIFINDEX 
for pmi_if0: No such device or address
pmi_if0: interface does not exist or cannot be managed using DHCP

or

# ifconfig pmi_if0 plumb
ifconfig: Aug 24 08:10:34  ip: pmi_if0: DL_BIND_REQ failed: DL_SYSERR (errno 16)
SIOCSLIFNAME for ip: Aug 24 08:10:34  ip: pmi_if0: DL_UNBIND_REQ failed: 
DL_OUTSTATE
pmi_if0: Device busy

Full disclosure:  The OpenSolaris I am using is a custom boot archive generated 
by taking bits and pieces in an effort to minimize the footprint.  It is based 
off of build 135.

Thanks in advance.
