Ok; which version of Solaris are you running?
This version of the Intel PRO/100 VE Desktop Adapter
should be supported since Solaris Express build 42:
Bug 6330971
Request support for Intel ICH7 network controller
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6330971
On my Solaris Express CE box running build 111 (and bfu'ed to more
recent kernel bits) I already have:
% grep 8086,27dc /etc/driver_aliases
iprb "pci8086,27dc"
> i ran - update_drv -a -i "'pci8086,27dc'" iprb
> result=>
> devfsadm: driver failed to attach: iprb
> Warning: Driver (iprb) successfully added to system
> but failed to attach
The quotes are not correct; it is double quotes around the
pciVVVV,DDDD string, and single quotes on the outside.
Assuming the double quotes version of "pci8086,27dc"
is present in /etc/driver_aliases and the iprb driver
still doesn't attach to the above ethernet device node:
Check with "prtconf -Dv" what "driver name" is listed for
the ethernet device node. "iprb" would be expected;
but there have been cases where the wrong driver is
selected via the subsystem-vendor-id / subsystem-id.
