setting a static address in alom

    
 for whatever reason my alom network settings were not picking up dhcp.  
 that's okay. let's set a static address. 

 many sun servers, by the way, do not have scadm in the platform directory...
 yeah. try it:
 /usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/scadm  
  
 get to a service console via a serial connection, logon and issue:  
   
 setsc netsc_dhcp false  
 setsc netsc_ipaddr <ip address>  
 setsc netsc_ipnetmask <subnet mask>  
 setsc netsc_ipgateway <gateway address>  
   
 shownetwork <- is useless until you have issued resetsc -y  
   
 reset the alom to effect settings:  
   
 resetsc -y
