network interface wrong!


Hi all !
 
I am  using Iperf measurement tool in my network, it is like this:
 
 
                                                                                                                          |
                                            |                                        |                                  eth3                                                                        
                                  -----NODE1 eth1----------------------- NODE2 ---------------- eth2 NODE3-----
                                            |                                        |                                    |                           
 
                            
 and each router has four network interrfaces. I want to send UDP traffic from node1 to node3 through node2.
 
I start Iperf_server in node3:
 
node3 > Iperf -s -u
 
and then Iperf_client in node1:
 
node1 > Iperf  -c eth2_IP_address -u
 
In node1 Iperf tells me :
 
[3]  local  eth1_IP_address connected with local  eth2_IP_address 
 
instead in node3 Iperf tells me:
 
[3]  local eth3_IP_address connected with local eth1_IP_address but  Iperf_server does not receive  
 
datagrams !!
 
Why  does Iperf_server listen on eth3 network interface ?
 
Thanks in advance !
