IP Multipathing (IPMP) is a way to bring redundancy into your Solaris networking. In essence, you can connect one physical, or, in this case, virtual server to multiple switches. In the event that one network interface should go down, then the server will still be accessible over the network. The idea is that you take two or more interfaces and make them part of an interface group. You assign an IP to one or both of those interfaces. In the event of a link failure on one interface, the other interface in the group continues to advertise the IP of the other. For a full explanation of IPMP, see the Oracle Solaris System Administration Guide : IP Services
