Sun Microsystems GigaSwift Ethernet Adapter Installation And User Manual page 48

Use the ifconfig command to assign an IP address to the network interface.
Type the following at the command line, replacing ip-address with the adapter's IP
address:
# ifconfig ce0 plumb ip-address up
Refer to the ifconfig(1M) man page and the Solaris documentation for more
information.
If you want a setup that remains the same after you reboot, create an
/etc/hostname.cenumber file, where number corresponds to the instance
number of the ce interface you plan to use.
To use the adapter's ce interface in the Step 1 example, create an
/etc/hostname.ce0 file, where 0 is the number of the ce interface. If the
instance number were 1, the filename would be
/etc/hostname.ce1.
Do not create an /etc/hostname.cenumber file for a Sun GigaSwift Ethernet
adapter interface you plan to leave unused.
The /etc/hostname.cenumber file must contain the host name for the
appropriate ce interface.
The host name must have an IP address listed in the /etc/hosts file.
The host name must be different from any other host name of any other interface,
for example: /etc/hostname.ce0 and /etc/hostname.ce1 cannot share the
same host name.
The following example shows the /etc/hostname.cenumber file required for a
system called zardoz that has a Sun GigaSwift Ethernet adapter (zardoz-11).
# cat /etc/hostname.hme0
zardoz
# cat /etc/hostname.ce0
zardoz-11
3. Create an appropriate entry in the /etc/hosts file for each active ce interface.
For example:
# cat /etc/hosts
#
# Internet host table
#
127.0.0.1
129.144.10.57 zardoz
129.144.11.83 zardoz-11
