After changing physical interface in zone unable to see outside world

Hi,

We have a solaris zones server with multiple zones (12)

All zones were configured to go over 1 hme interface, which i thought was a bit too much for 1 interface..... so i configured in another interface (qfe1) and moved over 2 zones to that interface by the following :

zonecfg -z dev11

<then did the following>

remove net physical=hme0

<then did>

add net

set physical=qfe1

set address=213.46.224.53

end

verify

commit

exit

Then i rebooted the zone and when it came back up it was not able to ping it's own interface anymore let alone the defaultroute.

I checked in the global zone to see if i correctly configured the qfe1 interface.... but that one is able to ping itself and can see it's defaultroute.... Is it not possible to reconfigure a physical interface ?

Also does it matter if the ip-address of the qfe1 interface in the global zone is higher (213.46.224.56) then the qfe1:0 in the zone itself (213.46.224.53) ?

When i create a brand new zone and use the qfe1 interface is does actually work... so there's nothing wrong with the actual qfe1 interface.

Anyone any ideas ?

Nico
