dladm aggregate aggr1 mac address messages during bootup

 Gurus;

An attempt to configure 2 x bge ports on the Sun Fire v240 to aggregate
their links using Solaris 10's new dladm command was "partially"
successful.

We noted the following messages upon a successful reboot;

mysolaris console login: WARNING: IP: Proxy ARP problem? Hardware address '00:14:4f:65:2d:86' thinks it is 192.168.023.040
WARNING: IP: Hardware address '00:14:4f:65:2d:86' trying to be our address 192.168.023.040!
Mar 14 13:14:01 inetd[223]: authdes_refresh: keyserv(1m) is unable to encrypt session key
WARNING: IP: Hardware address '00:14:4f:65:2d:86' trying to be our address 192.168.023.040!

dladm show-aggr indicated both ports to be fully up and running.

My questions are;

Does the aggregate link feature require the network administrator to
configure a LAG for the ports on the switch?

How would we know from the system side whether the network switch is
properly configure to support the above?

And lastly, is the above due to a lack of configuration on the network
switch side or something else entirely?

Warmest Regards
