The svc:/network/install service will support configuring one IPv4

service will use its properties and ipadm(1M) to configure the network

Why is this limited to a single address for v4 and v6 ?

Because at the moment, that's all that the Install team knows that they need.


Can multiple instances of network/install be created in a profile and be activated by the installer to create hosts with multiple IP addresses ? As is I believe possible today with jumpstart ?

The Install team has not yet indicated a need to support multiple IP addresses. However, this proposal was made taking into account that this request might come later. There is nothing about this proposal that will prevent support for multiple IP addresses in the future.



For the DNS configuration why are the resolv.conf "options", "sortlist" directives not supported for configuration in svc:/network/dns/install ?

Again, no need yet identified. But nothing prevents supporting it if the need arises.
