by I guess you didn't get the manual with the software.... do:
enter the following into /etc/opt/SUNWconn/trunking/bin/nettr.sh
nettr -setup 0 device=qfe policy=1 members=0,1,2,3
and reboot. You also have to tell the switch that you are doing this.
Policy 1 is MAC round robin. Works great for me. Oh yah, you might want to
try and get your interfaces talking full duplex. Its a performance pick me
up when you want a fast pipeline.
Happy trunking.
