I am updating the FAQ, and the old limit of 900 'public' VNICs is no 
longer in place. I am at 7100 and counting on a single bge interface. I 
take it there is no more limit?

Interestingly, I hit an error around 5500, where the random MAC address 
was not unique. I guess there is no collision detection and retry.

dladm: vnic creation over bge3 failed: MAC address is already in use

I am using 'dladm create-vnic -l bge3 -m auto $L', where $L is vnicXYZ 
and XYZ is an increasing integer.

In the meantime, I am over 10500 VNICs, and have had two MAC address 
collisions.
