Dual Ethernet connection to same subnet

Hi Managers,

I have a Sun Box ( Sun OS 5.5.1 ) running with two Fast Ethernet PCI cards
( instance hme1 and hme2 ), apart from the onboard Ethernet connection.
These two Ethernets are connected to the same subnet.

Now, will there be any automated load balancing due to these two Ethernet
connections ( they have connected to same subnet ) ? and Is there any way
to know the link status as ndd /dev/hme in 5.5.1 does not have any
provision to set the instance and check link status.

Thanks in Advance,
