[ixp1200] ENP2505 Example Issues

Can you expand a little more on the problem? The Count example should
only recv. packets, count and then discard them. Which interface
is it spitting packets out on?

I have tried Count, l2bridge and l3fwdr and they work fine. There are not
many board dependent commands in the ixsys.config file. Just comment
out "interface" commands for all other ports except for 0,1,2,3.
Similarly, comment out commands for other ports from the
route.config-sys-l3fwdr file or bridge.config-sys-l2bridge file.

And try with "mode = 0".

Also, check out the archives of this list, there was some discussion
earlier on this list about running ACE samples on the ENP-2505.
