I just installed two VMs with the Solaris 11 express (snv_151a) and when I turned off nwam, one worked and the second did not:<\/p>\n

The network would come up, both ifconfig and netstat -rn showed reasonable values, but the machine would only ping iff nwam were turned on.<\/p>\n
It turned out to be ipfiltering:<\/p>\n
