Hi Evan, I have some responses inline for this and also some comments based on your most previous e-mail.
First can you please confirm what release you're running? We should have support for the Intel I354, though it will require a more recent platform. Support wasn't added into illumos until the beginning of this month. Next, can you also please confirm what the PCI ID of your HP NC360T is? You should be able to get that from prtconf -d.

Yes, there's nothing wrong with that. > The single KVM guest I am running now is paired (somehow? I don't know > the exact mechanics yet) to the net0 link. Every entry in the nics array causes the creation of a virtual nic in the host. The first one for a given zone is called net0, the second net1, etc. A vnic is created over a physical nic. The physical nic is then programmed to receive on that mac address. If we've exceeded the number of mac addresses that the device supports, then it is transparently put into promiscuous mode. > A couple interesting things in the output for net0: > > LINK PROPERTY PERM VALUE DEFAULT POSSIBLE > net0 state r- unknown up up,down > > ^ The state is currently "unknown" which the rest of the links have > "up". I'm not sure why that is. Is it out of the ordinary? I'll have to dig into how that's generated, but I see the same state on our KVM instances. In general, what I'd ask is that if you snoop packets in the global zone, eg. run snoop -d e1000g0, do you see traffic coming from the guest? Keep in mind that depending on the problems that you're seeing, you may need to pay attention to ARP messages. What we'd like to ascertain is are we seeing traffic go out over the wire and if so, are we seeing responses come back to it and appear in the packet capture? I hope this helps point you in the right direction, let me know if there's something else I can clarify or suggest with respect to debugging.
