Hello zones community members,
I'm one of the engineers working on Solaris 10 Containers (S10Cs) for
OpenSolaris (http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/s10brand). I'm
currently evaluating networking requirements for S10Cs. Our ultimate
goal is to achieve networking feature parity with native Solaris 10
zones: we will want S10Cs to do everything that native Solaris 10 zones
can do.
I would appreciate any input you can provide regarding what you (or your
customers) currently do with your native Solaris 10 zones (both
exclusive- and shared-stack zones), especially the commands (arp, snoop,
traceroute, etc.), protocols, and other features/services (SMA,
Solstice, IPMP, NAT, IP Filter, DHCP client/server, IP tunnels, PPP,
IPsec, etc.) that you use most frequently. Your input will help us
prioritize networking features and set realistic expectations for our
product.
Thanks,
Jordan Vaughan

Definitely all the low level tools, including arp, snoop, traceroute.
DHCP client for sure, DHCP server probably.
IP Tunnel for sure, especially if you mean IPsec.
IPfilter, as it pertains to what a zone admin can do today to specify
filter rules within the zone. (I have not come across anyone doing this,
yet, so it might be lower priority on my end.)
DLPI access, or whatever network provisioning tools might use.
Here is the big one-------NFS server :) (not that I see how this would
be any different than a native S10 zone)
IPMP 100%
And all answers are shared and exclusive IP, in those cases where they
also work with shared IP.
VNICs is going to make exclusive IP accessible to a large number of
users who haven't been able to use them so far. And it will allow lots
of zones to share a few high speed NICs.
