S11U1 : bridge interface config issue.

[Magboro]

Hi,

I've just re-installed my Tecra M11 with S11 base release live cd, followed by upgrade to S11u1 build 24. Then installed VB 4.2

When I start a vm with bridged network, I get the following error :

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Viotti.
Failed to open/create the internal network 'HostInterfaceNetworking-e1000g0' (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_FAILED).
Failed to attach the network LUN (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_FAILED).


Result Code:
NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component:
Console
Interface:
IConsole {db7ab4ca-2a3f-4183-9243-c1208da92392}


I've been using virtualbox for years, and never had issues before.

Are you sure the nic name is correct? The default in solaris 11/11 is usually net0.
I would assume your host is the Solaris 11/11 SRU 1?

# ipadm show-addr
ADDROBJ           TYPE     STATE        ADDR
lo0/v4            static   ok           127.0.0.1/8
net0/v4           dhcp     ok           192.168.7.6/16
lo0/v6            static   ok           ::1/128

Try:

# VBoxManage modifyvm Viotti --bridgeadapter1 net0

And see if that works.

This is obsolate now.

On top of that, bridge does not work for wifi interface on solaris host
