Summary: Support setting up static IP for automatic installer
Classification: Development
Product: nwam
Version: unspecified
Platform: ANY/Generic
OS/Version: OpenSolaris
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: ON misc
AssignedTo: nwam-dev at opensolaris.org
ReportedBy: sundar.yamunachari at sun.com
QAContact: nwam-dev at opensolaris.org

The bug is filed as a follow up of the meeting between install group and
networking group. The automated installer currently supports only setting up
DHCP and it is a big problem for server installation. After automated
installation is completed, the user manually sets up static IP for the server.
This issue is a major blocker in moving from SXCE (Nevada) to OpenSolaris.
Further, the enterprise customers need the support of setting static IP from
the automated installer to move from Solaris to OpenSolaris.
The installation team is not interested in creating special code during the
installation to setup static address. It is desirable to have an interface such
as SMF to specify the network parameters so that the install code doesn't need
to know the inner details of networking.
