13 Specify the physical interfaces for which the Solaris Network Cache and
14 Accelerator ("NCA") feature will be configured in the nca.if configura‐
15 tion file. List the physical interfaces in the file, one per line. To
16 configure NCA to listen on all physical interfaces present on the sys‐
17 tem backed by a hostname.{interface_name}, then list only an asterik
18 ("*") in nca.if.

21 When the ncakmod(1) initialization script is invoked during system
22 boot, it will attempt to configure each physical interface specified in
23 the nca.if file by using ncaconfd(1M). Note that there must be an
24 accompanying hostname.{interface_name} file and an entry in /etc/hosts
25 for the contents of hostname.{interface_name}.

28 You must reboot in order to implement changes to the nca.if file.

74 /etc/hostname.{}{0-9} Lists all physical interfaces configured on
75 the server.
76
77
78 /etc/hosts Lists all host names associated with the
79 server. Entries in this file must match with
80 entries in /etc/hostname.{}{0-9} for NCA to
81 function.
