My first useful (hopefully) tip.
At the most recent OS Ambassador conference I ran across something I've been dreaming of for years. A Solaris capability (similar to my Mac) that automatically senses the various networks available and connects to the best one or gives you a choice. It's finally here in prototype format.
Go to the "Network Auto Magic" community at opensolaris.org. There you can download the prototype, install the package and off you go.
Keep in mind that this is a prototype and review all the caveats. Your target X86/X64 machine must be running build 36 or later of Solaris Nevada. Join the community, provide your feedback to the team and contribute code to the project if you can.
If you find that it doesn't work ever time (it is a protype after all) simply run:
Why you should care.
If you use a Solaris laptop, this will make you more productive by automatically sensing and configuring the network.

I need help in order to disable the network Auto Magic, would you mind to send the instructions, I am very familiar with windows, this is the first time that I am trying to be involved with solaris. I work for Chicago Public Schools and I would like to migrate to solaris, but I need help.
Thankyou

# Network Interface issues: Build 70 onwards, you have nwam service enabled by default. I tested it literally by yanking out the ethernet cable from the machine and waited for the service to report the connection being disabled. This happens just within a second or so. Then I reinserted again to witness auto detection of the dhcp server and obtaining an IP address. So as long as your nwam service is active, you shouldn’t worry. Period. If you want manual enabling, then do this as root at a command prompt (you can see I am a command line person.) svcadm disable nwam. That should do. Now you will be able to configure your network manually by going thru “Administration -> Network“. If you ever want to enable nwam again, do a svcadm enable nwam. Enjoy the simplicity.
# Enabling/Disabling services from UI: Go to “Administration -> Services“. If you are a non-root user, you will be asked for root password.
