command-line rsync solaris network-interface

                          I've to restore a large file from a NAS backup on Solaris 10 ZFS. I'm using this following command: 

     rsync -av user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:from/NAS/files/system to/solaris/files/system 

And I've got this error:
   
     Disconnecting: Corrupted MAC on input.
     rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (3778664937 bytes received so far) [receiver]
     rsync: [generator] write error: Broken pipe (32)
     rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(226) [receiver=3.1.0]
     rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at io.c(837) [generator=3.1.0
     rsync Disconnecting: Corrupted MAC on input.

After a little research the solution should be: 

     ethtool -K eth0 tx off rx off

As the ethtool command doesn't exist on Solaris, I should use the ndd utility in interactive mode. I didn't find any good explanation and the man page is poor, for getting the equivalent of the command line above. I'm missing something maybe.
