Network Multipathing

Network multipathing with failover is supported on hosts running the Solaris 8, Update 3 operating environment. This feature is provided as part of the standard Solaris operating environment and is transparent to the Sun SNDR software.

The Sun SNDR software does not natively support the functionality listed in TABLE 1. However, other Sun products can be used with the Sun SNDR software to provide these facilities.
