I have been having this problem with rum1 for several versions of Nevada 
(actually, since it kind of works):

After boot, this is what I get (in short):
# ifconfig -a
rum1: flags=201004803<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv4,CoS> mtu 1500 index 2
        inet 0.0.0.0 netmask ff000000 broadcast 255.255.255.255
        ether 0:21:27:c0:a8:9b 
# dladm connect-wifi -e wlan -k psk rum1
# dladm show-wifi                       
LINK       STATUS            ESSID               SEC    STRENGTH   MODE   SPEED
rum1       connected         wlan                wpa    excellent  g      36Mb
# ifconfig rum1 dhcp
^C
(times out, never connects)

Now, I need to:
# ifconfig rum1 dhcp drop
# dladm disconnect-wifi
# ifconfig rum1 unplumb
# ifconfig rum1 plumb
# dladm connect-wifi -e wlan -k psk rum1
# ifconfig rum1 dhcp
# 

I wonder why. There is a difference before and after unplumb:
# ifconfig -a
rum1: flags=201000842<BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,CoS> mtu 1500 index 3
        inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0 
netmask/broadcast are really different (here after unplumb/plumb).

I wonder how to configure the interface in a way that it can come up on its 
own; at least without the unplumb/plumb.
