Assuming the driver supports it, you should be able to change the MAC
address using ifconfig. I'm going to guess that this is the "atge" driver.
You should be able to bring up a link (at least to start) by doing
something like this:
$ pfexec ksh
$ svccfg disable -t nwam
$ ifconfig atge0 plumb
$ ifconfig atge0 ether 0:1:2:3:4:5
$ ifconfig atge0 dhcp start
Use the desired Ethernet address instead of "0:1:2:3:4:5". You may also
be able to solve this with VNICs and the dladm "-m" option.
