Other options (P = pseudo, M = "meta"):

    mnet
    mlink
    pnet
    plink
    pmac

The first one, "mnet" was once upon a time (Solaris 2.4 thru Solaris 8) 
used for the "Alternate Pathing" meta network driver, used to support 
RAS features on high end systems of the day such as the Enterprise 
10000.  It was replaced by IPMP, and later, aggr.
