 2. Cut script "ipg" (see below).
 3. Edit script to set preferred device and destination IP address.
+3a.  Create more scripts for different interfaces.  Up to thirty-two
+     pktgen processes can be configured and run at once by using the
+     32 /proc/net/pg* files.
 4. Run in shell: ". ipg"
 5. After this two commands are defined:
    A. "pg" to start generator and to get results.
