happening in both cases..ifconfig and route -n results are as below:

Send the results of 
ifconfig
and
route -n
 
I take it eth0 works fine...
 
Have you tried swapping the assignments and see if eth1 works (to 
eliminate faulty hardware).

Hi, Thanks for your kind reply, Yes i have used different * IP Subnets* 

The IPs and subnet details I use is 
1. eth0(configured through u-boot env settings)->> 192.168.174.231 and 
subnet is 255.255.255.0 
2. eth1(configured after kernel is up)--> 192.168.33.64 and subnet is 
255.255.248.0 

Even i tried by connecting second eth to host PC using cross cable as a 
stand-alone network but even "ping" did not work..

It depends :)

I used to test functionality such a way to have two enets in same subnet, 
then ifdown one of them.

At least with mvista RFS, one enet  handles NFS, other is up but all the 
packets are routed to it via
the first one. And when the first one got ifdown, routing switches to the 
remaining enet...
