If Lan cards  configured then only you can see using '#ifconfig -a 'command .If not already configured but attached to your server you can check those by using '#prtdiag'command

I would recommend # prtdiag |grep net. It tells you where the nic is physically located as well as the interface class 1648 is bge 35 is ce, etc ...

Use the dladm command to find out the NIC cards present in the server ..

'dladm show-dev'
'dladm link-state'

Both this command will help you in find out the number of cards(NICs) present in your server and what are the status of each NIC card.
