Answer / phani
First check whether this device is there in the file
/etc/path_to_inst.
the interfaces are of the types like hme0, rtl, bge0 ... etc.
run vi /etc/path_to_inst and check whether one of the type
is there in the file.
then run the command
ifconfig <interface name> <Ip address> plumb
ifconfig <interface name> <Ip address> up
ifconfig -a - shows your ip address of the system.
eg: ifconfig <rtl> <192.168.51.45> plumb
