I assume you are talking about an ixgbe NIC, probably something like
an x540 or an 82599? It would be helpful to specify the driver and
which specific NIC we are talking about.

The redirection table lists queues, not cores. The interrupt affinity
is what determines what queue will be routed to what core.

Thanks.
