The svcs -xv output you included shows that network/service is not yet online
because its start method is still running.  Could you do a 'svcs -p
network/service' to see what processes are running?

My guess is that the start method is stuck trying to execute 'ifconfig -auD4
netmask + broadcast +'.  Since your netmasks entry in nsswitch.conf has nis
first, this command tries to do a nis lookup for the netmask for each
configured interface, and that hangs if the nis server is not available.

There are guards that should prevent this command from being invoked if nis is
not enabled or the server is not bound, but I think there might be some
problems with those guards; I've seen some odd behavior with them while
investigating CR 6902185.
