You can use dladm command to change network interface
property in Solaris
In this example below maximum bandwidth of link is set to
2Mbps
$ dladm set-linkprop -p maxbw=2m e1000g0
Similarly if you want to set the link to full duplex
$ dladm set-linkprop -p duplex=full e1000g0

otherwise you can do this configurations from ndd
first see the default values from ndd
ndd -get /dev/hme0(networkcard) \?
OR ndd /dev/hme0 \? it will list all the parameters
ex::
ndd /dev/hme0 link_speed
later modify using
ndd -set /dev/hme0 link_speed value
