Hi Sun managers

I have a network issue with one of backup interface unable to talk to my
master backup server and media server. (3 systems in all). I have a
client system mr-01 and I have a media server med01 and master server
mst01

1. I am able to ping and traceroute to the media server (med01) and
master server (mst01)
2. But I am unable to ping/traceroute to the backup interface of
the client. It is at 192.168.49.106

This is what I have done so far

>From the client. (mr-01)

#ifconfig qfe5 192.168.49.106 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

#ifconfig -a ( the interface on the client is up)

#ping 192.168.49.106 ( able to ping it)

#route add -net 192.168.49.106 192.168.49.0 ( added the route )

#ping 192.168.49.0 ( able to ping it)

#ping med01 (able to ping it)

#ping mst01 ( able to ping it)

>From the master (mst01)

This is what I get

# ping mr-01-bu.wnsnet.attws.com
no answer from mr-01-bu.wnsnet.attws.com

# traceroute 192.168.49.106
traceroute: Warning: Multiple interfaces found; using 192.168.49.8 @
qfe2
traceroute to 192.168.49.106 (192.168.49.106), 30 hops max, 40 byte
packets
 1 * * *
 2 * *

And it is unable to reach the destination. I am unable to
ping/traceroute from the master/media server to the
client-backup-interface, but I am able to ping the hostname (mr-01) Any
help is appreciated.

Thanks
