Traceroute problem in solaris
I have following ifconfig -a output on my soalris 10 box

Code:
# ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
e1000g2361000: flags=201000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,CoS> mtu 1500
        inet 10.21.88.29 netmask fffffc00 broadcast 10.21.91.255
        groupname GUN2363
        ether 0:15:17:8e:d8:e4
e1000g2361000:1: flags=201000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,CoS> mtu 15
        inet 10.21.88.24 netmask fffffc00 broadcast 10.21.91.255

And when i do traceroute 10.21.88.24 it comes from the parent interface e1000g2361000 rather than e1000g2361000:1

Code:
3# traceroute 10.21.88.24
traceroute: Warning: Multiple interfaces found; using 10.21.88.29 @ e1000g2361000
traceroute to 10.21.88.24 (10.21.88.24), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets
 1  abc.test.com (10.21.88.24)  0.274 ms  0.097 ms  0.094 ms

What could be the reason for this .. and is there any i can change it to come back from the e1000g2361000:1 interface ? rather than e1000g2361000

You might try
Code:
traceroute -i e1000g2361000:1 10.21.88.24

I know that but my oracle application does not do like that .. it needs it without specifying the interface itself

i would take a look at your route table.

show us the output of `netstat -rn`

and what exactly doesn't like your oracle application as the command succeed anyway ? The warning message ?

Problem is that the virtual interfaces are configured with application ips which are hardcoded for e1000g2361000:1 and when the data comes back from the e1000g2361000 interface it does not work

What has that to do with traceroute ?
What do you mean data comes back ?
