[ixp1200] l3fwdr

[Kameswara Avasarala]

Hi,
      I am also facing a similar problem. I renamed the 
ixsys.config-l3fwdr file as ixsys.config and ran ixstart. I saw 17 
interfaces being created even though there were only 4 ethernet ports on 
the ENP-2505.
Is there a way in which the physical ethernel ports can be bound to the 
created interfaces ? If there is no way to bind, how can the interfaces 
(eth1,eth2,...) be mapped to the actual physical ports ?
Kamesh.
