Steps to Follow

Create a Meta-network device:
1. Select network interface to be used.
2. Create meta-network and confirm uncommitted metadevice
domain# apnet -c -p qe0 -a qe4
domain# apconfig -N -u
3. Commit new metadevices to database and confirm committed metadevices.
domain# apdb -C
domain# apconfig -N
4. Setp hostname.xxx file
domain# mv /etc/hostname.qe0 /etc/hostname.mqe0
domain# rm /etc/hostname.qe4
5. Switch network traffic over to metanetwork.
(if you are logged in the network were you are making changes,
see next step below)
domain# ifconfig qe0 down
domain# ifconfig qe0 unplumb
domain# ifconfig qe4 down
domain# ifconfig qe4 unplumb
domain# ifconfig mqe0 plumb
domain# ifconfig mqe0 inet 136.162.65.30 up
6. If you are logged in via the network, ifconfig down will log you out.
You can either:
reboot domain, step 5 is then not needed
or
execute the commands in step five on one line separated by
semicolons(;), or put them into a script....
or login on another network interface and perform the actions in step 5
Switching Meta-network Paths
-P => meta network name
-a => new active path
domain# apconfig -P mqe0 -a qe4
