The reason I was asking was you were using the ifconfig numbers for missed frames and not the numbers in Pktgen at least that is what I read.

The reason I was asking about looping back the cable on the pktgen machine was to make sure the configuration on the pktgen machine was able to get to wire rate using two ports. If you do not have two ports in the pktgen machine, then my suggestion will not work :-)

Sorry, I do not have any other suggestions.
