How many ports do you have on PortGroup 1 and PortGroup 2? Looks like 9 each, 
but I would like to confirm. 

Can you also confirm if the 9 ports of each portgroup is repeated or that the 9 
ports are incorrectly numbered e.g. Port 1-0 instead of Port 1-4.

How do I reproduce this problem?

You need to have an external server with more then 2 ports running drone.

I am unable to reproduce the problem even with multiple drones connected. 
However, I did find a but in the naming of the ports in the port stats window 
in some cases which I have fixed via revision c47d6d894b2d

Try with this fix otherwise please provide detailed steps to reproduce the 
problem.

I believe I have a variant of this issue.

I have a VMWare Server with 14 NICs, on which I have built a VM with a clean 
build of Ubuntu Desktop 12.04 LTS and have installed Ostinato 0.5.1

The VM machine has 5 NICs. 1 NIC is bound to a management VSwitch for control 
and 4 NICS intended for traffic generation. The management VSwitch connects to 
an external switch and a PC, which is running Windows 7 and Ostinato 0.5.1

If I run Ostinato locally on the Ubuntu machine all is well and 6 Ports are 
shown in the statistics panel (The 5 NICS + a loopback).

If I run Drone on the Ubuntu machine and Ostinato on the windows machine, when 
I connect to the remote port group, I get 6 instances of Port 1-0 each with 
identical statistics. 

Any thoughts?

I have continued to create two more VMs to the same specification of the first 
and a third to act. If I add run drone on all three and connect them to a 
Windows Ostinato session, I get the behaviour described about for Portgroup 1 
only. Portgroups 2 and 3 are shown correctly.

If I delete Portgroup 1 and then reconnect, the "PortGroups" Windows shows I 
have connected to PortGroup 4, however the statistics Window displays 6 
instances of Port 1-0 again.

I created a Linux Ostinato machine and connected to the three Portgroups from 
there, Once again Portgroups 2 and three displayed correctly, however I had a 
repeating pattern of Port 1-0 and Port 1-1, instead of just Port 1-0.

Hope this helps

If I replace the Windows Ostinato

@mark: can you build ostinato from latest source and check if you still see the 
problem?

I haven't currently got a Windows Compiler setup, so it may take me some time 
to get everything working. Do you have a pre-built Windows version that I could 
test for you? If not, I'll try to get something setup and built as soon as I 
can.

Thanks

I don't have a prebuilt Windows binary.

You can compile on Linux if that's easier for you.
