First, welcome to OI. Happy to have you here!

(Can’t tell from your post; you may have done it already, but) Sounds like you need to setup a Virtual NIC, on top of CrossBow. My own setup prefers an in-kernel ’switch’; a virtual subnet, essentially. My NGZs then speak to that*.

Our own docs may have some background. Meanwhile, here’s the Oracle version: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E93612_01/html/E93617/s11networking.html

*Though I must admit we’re having some trouble with this at the moment, secondary to recent updates. Will address shortly.

Then I installed the zone did my network config in the zone with DHCP, and I can perform package Installation and provide service to the world. But when I reboot the global Zone, then I am not able to boot the new created zone, because the NIC is used by the global zone.
