"/pci@1f,2000/pci@2/SUNW,qfe@3,1" 7 "qfe"
In the example above, the four SUNW,qfe@x,1 instances are from a Sun Quad
FastEthernet PCI adapter installed in slot 2. For clarity, the instance numbers are
bold.
2. Create an /etc/hostname.qfe<num> file, where <num> corresponds to the
instance number of each interface you plan to use.
If you wanted to use all of the adapter’s interfaces in Step 1 on page 11’s
example, you would need to create four files:
Filename
Instance
Number
Adapter Ethernet Channel (See
Figure 1–2)
/etc/hostname.qfe4
40
/etc/hostname.qfe5
51
/etc/hostname.qfe6
62
/etc/hostname.qfe7
73
Do not create /etc/hostname.qfe<num> files for Sun Quad FastEthernet
PCI adapter channels you plan to leave unused.
The /etc/hostname.qfe<num> file must contain the hostname for the
appropriate network interface.
The host name should have an IP address and should be entered in the
/etc/hosts file.
The host name should be different from any other host name of any other
interface, for example: /etc/hostname.hme0 and /etc/hostname.qfe2
cannot share the same host name.
Using the instance examples in Step 1 on page 11, the following example shows
the four /etc/hostname.qfe<num> files required for a system called zardoz
that has a Sun Quad FastEthernet PCI adapter (zardoz-11, zardoz-12,
zardoz-13, and zardoz-14).
# cat /etc/hostname.hme0
zardoz
# cat /etc/hostname.qfe4
zardoz-11
# cat /etc/hostname.qfe5
zardoz-12
# cat /etc/hostname.qfe6
zardoz-13
# cat /etc/hostname.qfe7
zardoz-14
