Ah, I think I misread your first email.

I don't think SmartOS supports doing it your way except for the admin IP...
See http://wiki.smartos.org/display/DOC/Managing+NICs

What's wrong with using a vnic?

Hi Nahum,

I tried that as well and it gives the exact same result.. external nic is not plumbed and a vnic is created instead.

I am surprised that something that simple does not work out of the box. For people running smartos with 2 nics, do you have both your nics plumbed in the GZ ?

Thanks !

    Your external_nic line is correct.
    The other three should be named like so:
    external0_ip
    external0_netmask
    external0_gateway

    Hi all,

    I am new to smartos and I am trying to install it on one server
    which has 2 nics (ixgbe0 for external and ixgbe1 for admin).

    The admin interface is correcly setup and ifconfig shows that the
    ixgbe1 is up with the desired network config. However, for the
    external, instead of bringing up the ixgbe0 with the desired ip,
    the system has created a vnic on top of it and brough it up.

    How can I tell smartos that I dont want to create a vnic for the
    external interface but I want to use the ixgbe0 directly.
    Basically, having the same behaviour as to how the admin nic is
    setup.

    The config for the external nic I use is as follow :

    external_nic={mac-address-omitted}
    external_ip={public-ip-omitted}
    external_netmask=255.255.255.0
    external_gateway={public-ip-omitted}

    beside these line and the ones to config the admin nic, i have only:

    - headnode_default_gateway
    - dns_resolvers
    - dns_domain
    - ntp_hosts

    Thanks in advance,
