on Solaris boxen, the network interface is accessed through
/dev/le. the le driver is dlpi compliant, which will allow you to
access certain information from it. it also creates a STREAMS stream,
so you can push handy things like bufmod pfmod onto it..

Unfortunately the dlpi interface does allow you to find out if the
interface is in promiscuous mode.
