I just got a sun box (Solaris 8) I have 8 network interface (NIC) four of them are with ce (GIG speed), how I could find out the other four NIC ( I know they are 100 mb)? I need to enable them, but i don't know what they are. Your help will be apprecited.
 
You can try this command...

cat /etc/path_to_inst | grep network
 

ifconfig -a will tell you what they are called.
these commands may help:
ndd -get /dev/hme link_status
0 is down, 1 is link up
ndd -get /dev/hme link_mode
0=half duplex, 1=full duplex
ndd -get /dev/hme link_speed
0 = 10 Mb, 1 = 100 Mb
netstat –r displays routing table

hope it helps.
 
ifconfig -a will only display network devices that are configured (have a /etc/hostname.<nic> file).
