Try to "ps -ef | grep dhcp" for dhcpagent and such. It may be spawned
directly by ifconfig, if if detects being called for a DHCP-enabled
interface. To revise the configurations, see if you have (empty) files
like /etc/dhcp.bnx0 (or other interface names) - remove them for static
configs, and/or if anything of interest is in files in /etc/dhcp/* and
seems like your configuration (you might need to comment that out).

Also, maybe "ipadm show-addr" would reveal anything that it can
reconfigure (or you can tweak in /etc/ipadm/ipadm.conf - though this
is unsupported). I believe, but may be wrong, that ipadm was pushed as
the new proper way to configure IP addressing things, and in particular
it should be consulted by both static and NWAM initialization methods.
I've only tried it once out of interest mostly, and so far stick with
old-school static files ;)
