And where would you suggest I put this? Into the /etc/hostname.XXX
entry directly (and generally repeat for each interface on this net,
though irrelevant for this discussion - Peter only has one per zone)?

BTW, do you have any opinion on ipadm and whether it would be easier
to configure with it vs. nwam or old-school static files? Can ipadm
conflict with these two methods, or would it provide addressing info
to both of them (whichever is enabled)?
