Based on the information presented in the Exhibit, which two options describe the state of the
system when the server is booted for the first time after the installation is complete?
A.
NWAM will be used to configure the network interface.
B.
The network/physical service is offline.
C.
You cannot log in from the console as root. You must first log in as a user and then su to root
account.
D.
The root user can log in from the console login.
E.
You will be prompted to configure the network interface after the initial login.

As because the network/physical service is online and network interface configuration isn’t prompted after install, the only correct answer, beside D should be A. Probably ‘noloc’ NCP is configured by NWAM.
A and D
I agree with A & D;
Tested this a while back… Selected None (Network), and No user account. After installation, I could log in to the console through root user and the network/physical services were both online. And there was no prompt to configure the network after initial login.
So, that cancels-out, B, C & E and you left with A & D (Elimination rule)
Correct answers are A and D
Introduction to NWAM
The Network Auto-Magic (NWAM) feature simplifies basic network configuration by automatically addressing basic Ethernet and WiFi configurations, such as connecting to your wired or wireless network at startup and displaying notifications about the status of your currently active network connection from the desktop. NWAM is also designed to simplify some of the more complex networking tasks, such as the creation and management of system-wide network profiles, for example, the configuration of naming services, IP Filter, and IP Security (IPsec), all of which are features of Oracle Solaris.
How the Network Is Configured During an Installation
During a fresh installation, the network is configured as follows:
For a GUI installation, the Automatic NCP is activated, and the network is automatically configured, based on current network conditions.
For a text installation, you must choose Automatic, Manual, or None.
If you choose Automatic, the Automatic NCP is activated, and the network is automatically configured upon reboot.
If you choose Manual , the DefaultFixed NCP is activated, and you are presented with a series of installation screens that enable you to manually configure your network settings.
If you choose None, the DefaultFixed NCP is activated, but you do not provide network parameters during the installation. Thus, after a reboot, no network interface is plumbed or configured. Only the loopback IPv4 and IPv6 interfaces (lo0) are activated. You must manually configure your network by using dladm and ipadm in this case. See Managing Network Configuration When in Manual Mode.
For an installation with AI, the network is configured according to the profile that you set up before the installation. By default, the interactive sysconfig tool runs during the installation, enabling you to set network parameters for the system. See Installing Oracle Solaris 11 by Using AI.
For information about how the network is configured after an upgrade from Oracle Solaris 11 Express, see Network Configuration Changes.
