Gurus, Thank you very much for the help. I figured out the problem. I was not aware that the primary interface was the one sending packets and if you have other interface configured, it could be the one receiving the packets. Thanks to you for informing about it, you know who you are. For all of you who replied, thank you very much. Your replies may not exactly solve my problem, but they surely give additional information to me. What a great help!!! Happy Holidays!!!

We do this for failover purpose. If qfe0 fails, we can still access the server through qfe1. If I configure the IPs for qfe0 and qfe1 manually, I can ping them from the other hosts. But everytime I reboot the server, even if the /etc/hostname.qfe0, /etc/hostname.qfe1, /etc/defaultrouter, /etc/netmasks, /etc/hosts and local-mac-address?=false are configured properly, I can not ping the IPs. The ifconfig -a shows that the IPs are set for the qfe0 and qfe1 and both interfaces are using same mac address but I can't ping them. I have to unplumb and plumb the interfaces again and reassign the IPs to them to be able to ping them. What is wrong with my configuration, why the IPs are not pinging when the server gets rebooted.
