Hi all,

Today I installed Quad fast ethernet card in Ultra 10 machine with 440
Mhz cpu. After Insatlling Solaris 2.6 and suggested patches, I installed
qfe 2.1 drivers pakages for Solaris 2.6. I setup entries in /etc/hosts,
/etc/hostname.qfe0 and reboot -- -r. I assumed it will work fine, but it
could not ping to any node.

I checked /etc/path_to_inst file. On ok prompt I check the qfe by
executing watch-net-all it seems fine. Actual scenario is that  we have
2 cards/interfaces, one is hme0 and other is qfe0, both have different
netmasks. hme0 is working fine, but qfe0 is not pinging and giving
meassege [ICMP ...host is unreachable}. When I execute 
#ifconfig -a , it shows both interface up, but I could not understood
#netstat -rn 
output.

Any suggestion will be helpful for me.
