If you can post the "nothing," that might help.  At a guess, it's
telling you to look at /var/svc/log/network-ipfilter:default.log, and
that the actual error message is in there.

Going further on that limb, the actual error message might be "no such
interface" or something like that.

That shouldn't be a big deal.  nwamd uses kstat to read initial link
state for drivers that don't support DL_NOTE_LINK_UP/DOWN.  There aren't
many like that, so it almost certainly doesn't matter.

Unfortunately, I have no idea how NWAM and ipfilter interact.
