However, lets go back to the subject. You're saying that after a reboot, the interface is present in 'ifconfig -a', but it isn't "UP"?
Can you show the output of the following commands after a reboot (when the interface is still down)?
cat /etc/hostname.ce0
wc /etc/hostname.ce0
ifconfig -a

Thanks guys for your response
Well,
Below is my brief with the output
Issue No.1 on Sun Fire V 490 on Solaris 10.
1. i have already created /etc/hostname.ce0 interface file.
2./etc/hosts updated
3./etc/nodename updated
but then also the operating system is not able to plumb the ce0 interface automatically.
i used to do manually after every reboot.
Issue No. 2 - Sun Fire V 240 on Solaris 10
1. The interface bge0 is not able to configure for 100 Mbps / Full Duplex,
if i am trying to configure with ndd -set /dev/ce
root@s01thkwlapp1a # /usr/sbin/ndd -set /dev/bge adv_autoneg_cap 0
operation failed: Invalid argument
root@s01thkwlapp1a #
if i am trying to set through ndd it says operation failed .....
Could you please assist me on this.....
Many Thanks,
Rahman

I'll repeat my request. The information you are choosing to post is not very specific and makes it difficult to diagnose anything. That's why I asked for particular output.
Can you run the following commands and post the output (run them after the reboot when the interface has not come up).
cat /etc/hostname.ce0
wc /etc/hostname.ce0
ifconfig -a

for the bge problem I guess the cmd you're running is not correct
I have a script on one of my server like this:
ndd -set /dev/bge0 adv_100T4_cap 0
ndd -set /dev/bge0 adv_100fdx_cap 1
ndd -set /dev/bge0 adv_100hdx_cap 0
ndd -set /dev/bge0 adv_10fdx_cap 0
ndd -set /dev/bge0 adv_10hdx_cap 0
ndd -set /dev/bge0 adv_1000fdx_cap 0
ndd -set /dev/bge0 adv_1000hdx_cap 0
ndd -set /dev/bge0 adv_autoneg_cap 0
you have to specify the bge instance
