I just BFU''ed up to B61 and started to play with IP Instances.
I''m having trouble making my zone happy:
root at aeon zones$ zoneadm -z testing1 boot
zoneadm: zone ''testing1'': WARNING: unable to hold network
interface ''skge0''.: Invalid argument
root at aeon zones$ dladm show-dev
nge0 link: up speed: 100Mb duplex: full
skge0 link: unknown speed: 0Mb duplex: unknown
Here are the relevant bits from the zone config:
ip-type: exclusive
net:
address not specified
physical: skge0
I''ve tried variations, such as plumb''ing skge0 in the
globalzone, etc, but I''ve had no luck. Are IP Instances only valid
with certain NIC''s (every example I''ve ever seen was bge) or
am I missing something?
Thanks.

Ben, please run ''dladm show-link'' and notice that the nge is
type: non-vlan,
which means you could assign it to an IP Instance.
From a forthcoming Crossbow FAQ:
Which NICs are known to work with IP Instances?
* bge
* e1000g
* ixgb
* nge
* rge
* xge
