Gurus,

After having configured the boot and the install
server for the client, we type
ok boot net - install
My understanding is that "net" is a devalias to a
network device (NIC / NIC port). In jumpstart this
devalias defaults to the onboard transceiver.

I need to use a different NIC to connect to the front
network and therefore need to be able to define a
devalias for that NIC port. The question is that given
the variety of different NICS out there is there any
good method of telling which NIC the network is hooked
to -- I have tried doing "show-nets" and it is not
obvious esp when you have a lot of NICS e.g. couple of
quad-gig NICS etc.

thanks and regards,

Vishal
