/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.
