Hi,
Can you tell why my vnic built on top of an aggregation of 2 NICs of 1 Gbit/s
doesn't report a speed of 2 GBit/s ?
[root at nazgul /]# dladm show-dev
bge0 link: up speed: 1000Mb duplex: full
bge1 link: down speed: 0Mb duplex: unknown
bge2 link: down speed: 0Mb duplex: unknown
bge3 link: down speed: 0Mb duplex: unknown
---
Aggregation creation: bge1 & bge2 aggregated, BW = 2 Gbps
---
[root at nazgul /]# dladm create-aggr -d bge1 -d bge2 1
[root at nazgul /]# dladm show-link
bge0 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 device: bge0
bge1 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 device: bge1
bge2 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 device: bge2
bge3 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 device: bge3
aggr1 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 aggregation: key 1
---
Create Virtual NIC on top of this aggregation

[root at nazgul /]# dladm create-vnic -d aggr1 1
[root at nazgul /]# dladm show-link
bge0 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 device: bge0
bge1 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 device: bge1
bge2 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 device: bge2
bge3 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 device: bge3
aggr1 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 aggregation: key 1
vnic1 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 device: vnic1

Assign IP address to the vnic
