Show existing physical interface and link information:

dladm show-phys
dladm show-link
dladm show-ether
dladm show-aggr

Show existing IP configuration and delete:

ipadm show-if
ipadm delete-if e1000g0

Create the bond specifying the interfaces to include and add a static IP address:

dladm create-aggr -l e1000g0 -l e1000g1 aggr0
ipadm create-addr -T static -a 192.168.1.100/24 aggr0/v4

Delete a bond:

ipadm delete-if aggr0
dladm delete-aggr aggr0

Add LACP bonding to switch that supports LACP.

If you are using the bond to communicate with the server, you will lose connectivity on the next step.

Enable LACP on the server side:

dladm modify-aggr -L active -T long aggr0

Add interfaces to a bond:

dladm add-aggr -d e1000g1 -d e1000g3 aggr1

Show routes:

netstat -nr

Add a route:

Ephemeral:

route add default <ipaddress>

Persistent:

echo <ipaddress> > /etc/defaultrouter
