Configuring Virtual Networking Using SunPCi III Software

If you are installing SunPCi III 3.2.1 software on an Sun system with more than one network interface, the SunPCi III startup script displays the following message:

SunPCi: This machine has multiple network interfaces. If you are using SunPC networking, you need to set the environment variable NVL_INTERFACE to indicate the desired network interface. Type netstat -i for a list of interfaces on this machine.

Enter the interface name into the script, for example if the netstat -icommand returns one of the following names: hme0, hme1, or eri0, then enter the name into the script. Be sure to use the correct Ethernet name, especially if you are planning on using virtual networking. Virtual networking shares the Sun system’s Ethernet port.
