annoying jumpstart question

We're jumpstarting a bunch of servers (Solaris 10), and I was just
wondering if there's a way to change this behavior:

Yes, we have a lot of interfaces. ce4 is the one we're using for the
jumpstart. I'd like it to stop probing all the others. It takes a minute
or two to decide to skip each interface, and that takes longer than I want
to wait.

Any quick fixes? Something in the sysidcfg file, maybe?

Thanks,
-Adam
