    Setting ip properties atthe virtualisation layer
    seems not straight forward to me. Lately I was
    asked about the problem where DNS onUbuntu 16
    was not working despite the setting in the zone.cfg
    (Configurating /etc/resolv in Linux was needed)

    I would prefer a more ESXi like behaviour where settings
    about hardware like (lofi) disks, CPU, RAM, vnics are zone
    settings while network configuration is done by the VM
    itself with the different but regular Linux tools and ways.

    A related question
    Exclusive ip access over a dedicated vnic is working.
    I had problems with shared/ bridged access to a physical nic
    that is in use by OmniOS itself or a different zone. Is that possible?

    And is there a property to limit RAM or CPU of an LX zone?
