[ixp1200] can't see packets on workbench

[Shweta Rao]

Hi,

Most of my previous problems got solved after i changed the linux
image i was using.This is how my setup is.Please do help!
I have Intel's Evaluation box .The silicon is BO..i have connected
with serial cable to a windowsNT machine which runs cygwin for
compiling code and also has the workbench and SDK loaded.The box has
two gigaports and one 10/100 MB ports and 8 MAC ports.I have a hub
which connects the NT machine and the 10/100MB port.I was trying to
run chapter5 example just to see the packets on the workbench via
hardware.I connected mac port1 to a ixia pkt generator and used
transmit (i am not sure whether this was the right way to do it or
should i have connected ixia and mac1 to the hub). The LED on port1 is
green.on the ixia i started Transmit  but couldn't see the scratchpad
counter increasing.what am i doing wrong? on the hyperterminal i have
done ifup,changed etc/hosts,insmod ue,rs_udebug& and also insmod
octmac.o mac1="00:01:...".
Please help!

Thanks,
shweta
