What version of Solaris?

On illumos I usually just create a vnic over a real ethernet interface,
and attach the simulator to that:

# dladm create-vnic -l rge0 simh0

rge0 is my ethernet interface, simh0 is the name of the vnic. You can
then attach simh to simh0 as you would attach it to any other ethernet
interface. This will allow you to communicate with the host as well as
with the network it is attached to.
