You could just turn nwam off and re-enable the stable, old Solaris 10 style 
networking services by using su to gain root priveleges and then typing in 
these commands:

svcadmin disable nwam

svcadm enable network/physical:default

After you disable it, there is a graphical interface that you can use for 
configuring the networking in OpenSolaris 2008.05 (kind of like 
system-config-network in Red Hat). The only catch is that you really should 
probably be super-user / root to use it to it's full capabilities, so if you 
already have the root # prompt, type in:

network-admin

and you'll get the GUI with full root user permissions. Another catch is that 
in build 86, the network-admin GUI won't work if you hadn't already disabled 
nwam (which was why we typed in svcadm disable nwam earlier on).

Another way to maybe get the network-admin prompt with administrator 
permissions via RBAC might be to type in:

$ pfexec network-admin
