For a Sun RayTM, see Sun Ray Server Software 4.1 Installation and Configuration Guide for the Solaris Operating System. To
configure initial client-server communication, see Configuring Trusted Network Databases (Task Map). |
For a laptop, go to the OpenSolaris Community: Security web page. Click
Trusted Extensions. On the Trusted Extensions page under Laptop Configurations, click Laptop instructions. |
To prevent
networks from communicating with the global zone, configure the vni0 interface. For an
example, see the Laptop instructions. In the Solaris Express Community Edition, you do not
need to configure the vni0 interface. By default, the lo0 interface is an
all-zones interface. You can make your external connection, dhcp, be an all-zones interface.
For instructions, see the Laptop instructions. |
